Default Need A/C Lines!

Both my high and low air conditioning lines are leaking. They need to be replaced and my mechanic that dyed the system for me told me that they're Lexus only parts (no aftermarket) and they'll probably be pricey to get. I figured I'd see where you guys get parts when you need em.

Also, to anyone who might've taken your AC off your car all together, could I possibly buy your lines?

Junkyards or classifieds will be your best bet. Dealer will RAPE you to replace those lines

are they leaking from the clamp that holds the lines together under the radiator?. i ask because thats where mine leaked from and i had to cut the corroded part out and get it welded back. the junkyard lines will more than likely leak from there too. i went thru 3 sets from the junkyard.

Yeah. I'm PMing a few guys on here who have some. Hopefully I can get it worked out without resorting to junkyards.

Those two lines from the dealer come together with the small muffler for like $500

I found a shop that removed the line and then they had another shop cut the old section out and weld in in small hose section like what's in the ebay link above.

Cost me like $350 bucks total with all the labor.
