Will this bolt up to my existing AC lines without modification?

Yes. The inlet and outlet fittings are factory-standard, so your existing hoses connect directly. No adapters or modifications needed.

Do I need to flush the system before installing this condenser?

Yes—if your old condenser failed or leaked, contaminants may be in the lines. A system flush prevents debris from clogging the new condenser and extends its life. This is a best practice, not optional.

Can I install this myself with basic tools?

Removal and installation require disconnecting refrigerant lines and unbolting from the radiator support. You'll need an AC recovery machine to safely handle refrigerant—this isn't a DIY task. Take it to a shop with proper AC certification.
