Better AC for 1987 362 Peterbilt cabover

Red Dot been around a long time, might look into some of their products….

 

Use to be many red dots on the cab of trucks, I’d say it would work fine. Guy up in Ohio has a newer red dot on the cab of his Peterbilt and says it works good…

 

Keep your radiator clean,wash it out once a month or so to clean out the bugs and stuff so the engine runs as cool as possible,might help a little.

 

You have a lot of heat soaking going on, insulate the floor.

 

That would be a good start.

 

Cabovers were never known to frost your balls. The York compressor just doesn’t take to the 134a like the sanden. Most likely you have years of build up inside the evaporator core.

I agree red dot has been making A/C stuff for trucks for years

 

Never had issue with heat or cold when i drove cabovers..they all had Arctic package so well insulated..im sure the floor is critical..I know the IHC i drove had 1” plywood fastened underside of floor

 

Have a friend with a red dot on his cab over, only problem he says is you need to wear long sleeves when driving it’s either off or frozen
