I've been spending a log of time online trying to learn more about these barbed fittings and the Ford Springlock fittings. As far as the Springlock fittings go, it appears that the only ones that I could find have a beadlock end that only fits standard barrier hose. I made a phone call to an AC hose...

Detroit, thank you for your suggestion of using the modern, variable compressor. In hindsight, I think that I should've done that in the first place. Since I feel like I'm just talking with my car "cyber buddies" here, I'll explain why I used the OEM Ford components that I used for my LS s...

2. I'm new to this but my research led me to believe that reduced barrier hose has the same ID as regular barrier hose with a smaller OD allowing for tighter radius bends, taking up less space but providing the same amount of durability.

Don't worry too much about it, it was a fixable problem. I really do not understand it. I buy from Amazon all the time. Have to wonder if there is some malware embedded somehow. Did you surf that link yourself or through a third party website I've used my wife's amazon account to "host" p...

"Hose clamping to a barb fitting " Yikes!! I don't want to be there when it is started up. And when I click the link to the Amazon pictures, that site overtook my computer and wiped the forum off, I could not get back to Tim's site. I had to load a fresh new screen and re-logon. Won't be ...

I'm planning on using reduced barrier hose. To crimp the hose onto the5/8" barbed fitting of the accumulator, I think I'm going to need one of these at the end of the hose: https://www.ackits.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=39869_39877&product_id=12900 Maybe I need the #10 inst...

Thank you, Tim. I edited my original post and it looks like the links to my two pictures are now working.

Thank you for the file size information. John. I'll try that tomorrow and see if my pictures will show up.
