I figure you are trying to find a better solution to the 134 refrigerant changeout... those 4 won't last very long though. you would need 6 or more on a hot day in atlanta...

I know from experience that three 55-gal drums fit perfectly in the back of my 84 TDT. Weight? I don't haul them full.

were the best law enforcement/investigative agency in the southwest U.S. Believe they were modeled after a New Mexico law group. They were directly responsible to the TEXAS governor and today are prolly as good as the FBI, CIA,DEA. Stories of their exploits will raise the hair on your neck. The old timers had grit.
