1973-79 Ford F-Series/1978-79 Bronco SureFit® Reduced Barrier Modified Hose Kit

The 1973-79 Ford F-Series/1978-79 Bronco SureFit® Reduced Barrier Modified Hose Kit is a fitment-specific option for 1973 - 1979 Ford F Series, using the manufacturer's application details for proper integration. Its layout supports flexible installation, this kit is ideal for custom builds, restomods, and engine-swapped vehicles requiring custom hose routing. The Reduced Barrier Modified A/C Hose Kit is intended for installation with a complete SureFit ® air conditioning system in vehicles featuring modified engine compartments, custom core supports, or other non-factory layouts. The kit includes longer length reduced barrier refrigerant hoses compared to the standard hose kit which are equipped with a factory-quality, pre-crimped reduced barrier beadlock fitting on the evaporator/condenser end, while the opposite end, connecting to the compressor, is left uncrimped to allow precise trimming, routing, and custom crimping during installation. The design enables a clean, professional fit tailored to the vehicle's unique engine bay layout. Also included are all required beadlock fittings, O-rings, and necessary mounting hardware to complete the installation. Comprehensive installation instructions and hose crimping guidelines are provided to ensure proper assembly, secure connections, and optimal refrigerant system performance.
