I was afraid of something like that. It’s at a shop out of town, I’m trying to get the guy to look at it and tell me. I wish I wrote down which I had and which part number when I replaced them last.

Hi all, sorry quick clarification I couldn’t find readily on search. The condenser for a 2262-9 deluxe 8 sedan, there are two part numbers listed for the cross reference, I assume one is the custom and one is everyone else. AL-71 and AL-869, which is right?

That 48 is in my general area, if anyone wants to spot me the storage!

Not all water stains come from rain… but I sure wouldn’t pay more for that ;)

Seems like an abandoned rat rod project that never actually started.

Alright, she locks! The u joints worked, though I'd go a size up next time if I'd do it over again to eliminate the corner filing. I went with my thought above around u joint placement, ie close to the tumbler assembly, and there were no issues and also room for error also if something goes wrong cutting/grinding.

Unfortunately one of my eBay door locks the tumbler just pulls out pending what way I turn it. It locks and holds tight so I just have to be careful about that when I unlock I guess. Another issue is my passenger side lock is very temperamental in general. The key doesn't seem to have the torque to lock it, and the rubber end is too shallow to allow the locking tab to go far enough down to lock the car. So I can get it to lock with pliers to reach below the wood grain trim, but it also takes convincing. I'll have to open up the door again sometime I guess and maybe remove the whole lock assembly to see why it's not locking easily.
