Hello everyone.

Has anyone installed air conditioning in a factory none ac tractor. Have a 200 with factory cab but didn’t originally have ac. But has heater core and fan in cab roof.

I kinda thought get the brackets from salvage yard to mount compressor on engine then for in cab stuff get like a kit for hot rod. And put in place of where heater is in roof.

Or go crazy with fully in closed unit on roof for like a RV.

Thanks

Sometimes they put the air conditioner condenser right behind the heater and never hooked it up if that brand had the option for ac.
My Dads JD 4320 has a HINIKER cab that had the option but it was never hooked up on his.

the roof mounted AC for trucks / tractors seemed like a good idea to me.. They pull 60 amps at 12v supply... no need for a mounted compressor... just need a BIG alternator... ??
