any ideas on where I might be able to find this AC hose??

any idea if I can get this hose somewhere locally? like a Advance or napa???

It's the 3 1/2 inch long - by about 3 1/4" diameter hose that goes in the smugglers box to the AC in the passenger compartment.

Any ideas? when I took the evaporator out - it look like it was in good shape - but started disentegrating

Jeremy,

I don't know about where you live, but I was just in one of our local "hose service" shops and they had several different types of flexible duct hose. If you have a shop that makes hydraulic hoses, give them a call.

I order the high quality stuff from Aircraft Spruce; I ordered a 2 ft length that is gradually being using up to repair 911 A/C systems. My cost with shipping was about $.45/inch.

Thanks Jim - I normally would have done this - when I looked at it before I ordered parts - it looked like it was in good shape - when I took it apart - it sort of crumbled!
