Chris,

I converted our 87 Westfalia last year and couldn't have been happier. I did it "right" with compressor removal and flushing, system flushing, and dryer/accumulator replacement. I replaced only the "O" rings in the joints I broke apart. We took a trip to Louisiana with three adults and four teens (middle seat option) when it was 95-98 degrees and 90+ on the humidity. Nice and cool all the way.
