Arrow Custom/good A/C shops capable of odd connections and retrofitting

Anyone have any good leads on shops that can do custom A/C parts?
I need some custom lines that will bolt right up to existing Mazda A/C system and a different brand nondomestic condenser?

Anyone with experience with custom A/C systems or modified systems that required a shop with full capabilities?

Well, if you looking to make custom lines, go to www.SummitRacing.com, and look up Aeroquip products. They make SS a/c lines and fittings. When I get home, i'll look in my Summit catalog for the part #'s.

Why are you looking for an aftermarket condenser? I'd just try searching around google.

As far as an a/c shop, i'm not to sure they would be able to make brackets for mounting the condenser. You'd probably be better off finding a fabrication shop/machine shop. I'd try Ground Zero/Xcessive to start off with since they are local. If they can't help you, i'm sure they could point you in the right direction.

I do like the guys at GZ, but everything is handled, except for the lines. I have a condenser that fits a custom install perfectly, just need to find a place that can crimp to existing Mazda high side hose with proper length flexline, and add fittings to my request.

I have looked around, and have not been able to find anyone willing or capable to do such a simple task IMO.

Thanks for the input, anyone have experience with a shop that will just complete the job as requested?

www.ackits.com will or used to make custom lines. If you post this on the board at www.aircondition.com you will probably get a lot of responses. Plus, these guys can ususally do it a hell of a lot cheaper.

Thanks, this place looks like it will suit my needs perfectly without having to pay ~80 for 2 lines from Aeroquip.
