A/C line photo needed
So I was replacing this torn factory a/c line standoff on the right engine lid hinge because it was allowing the hose to rub on the body when the lid was open.
![]() Put it in the way it appeared to be before but it seems like it's always being bent when the lid is open ![]() Anybody have a photo (or can take one) of an unmodified/original setup? Thanks

mine is the same. that should only rub when the lid is up. when you push the lid down it pushes the hose down and away from the body. perhaps you don't have enough flex in the hose...?

It doesn't rub now that I replaced the standoff, but the standoff is flexing when the lid is open.

Below are pics of the updated hose clamp solution we supply with the Kuehl compressor to deck lid condenser barrier hose line assembly.
This solution will prevent the hose from rubbing against the body. (1) 7/8" OD hose clamp (2) 5mm ID stainless steel washers (1) 5mm x 25 mm stainless steel machine bolt (1) 5mm nylock nut (1) .192" ID x .50"x.50" nylon spacer ![]() ![]() |
