Hi All, I'm in the process of changing out motors. I'm doing it by removing the front end assembly. I have almost all out, except the A/C condenser,the bumper support and the radiator support bar.
My question is can i take off my A/C condenser without leaking the system. I need the condenser off or out of the way so i can go ahead and remove remaining pieces. Thanks

You're going to lose your a/c refrigerant, unless you leave the compressor in the motor bay (with the condenser); not sure that's really a good option.

Really should evacuate the system and remove the condenser.

Yeah i'm trying to leave all A/C components attached so i dont have to evacuate the system. The condenser is on the support bar which i'm trying to take off. Thanks for the reply
