How can I repair this A/C leak?

[gixxerjoe]

Hello All,

My A/C hose is leaking from the clamps, can anyone tell me should I replace the entire hose or can this be repaired by replacing some O-Rings?

Please advise

Nope,, those ends are crimped. You will have to replace the hoses.

You will have to replace the line itself

Thanks for the imput.

Is this part only made by ford, or could I get it at else where like auto zone?

You can buy aftermarket A/C hoses, they may look a little different from the originals

You can buy Ford from Torrie McPhail at http://www.fordpartsnetwork.com, or other brand at http://www.acsource.com

Thanks for the site. My only problem is the hose I'm looking for is called what? This hose is half metal and crimps to rubber, so its a combo hose.

This is what I pulled up on the Ford site

Hvac
Air conditioner
Compressor
Compressor
Condenser
Discharge line
Evaporator core
Liquid line
Suction line

Thanks
