Spring Special- 7 cyl Sanden Compressor Retrofit Kit for 616/617 - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

ROLLGUY · #1 03-17-2014, 09:10 PM

I have 4 complete 7 cylinder Sanden Retrofit kits that I am offering on this Spring special. The price is $435 + S/H (Mounting kit $180, 5 cylinder Compressor $160, Hose Kit $80, Drier $15). The Spring special is $435+ S/H/I, but has the 7 cylinder compressor at no extra charge (normally a $20 upgrade). I only have 4 complete kits at this price. I will also offer just the mounting kits for $180 and I will pay the shipping (Priority), and/or the hose kit for $80 and I will pay the shipping. [the photo is the 5 cyl, but the special is for a 7 cyl]

x2, still only cash?

I really want one of these, but I don't want to mail cash only across the entire country to get one. Thats very risky for a buyer, especially as shown by a previous incident with a guy buying this very kit from half the distance.

ROLLGUY, if its cash only and you will not budge from this policy, are there any forum members near you that would act as intermediaries? IE- forum members from a distance away can mail a check or money order to them, and they can pay you cash.

Are you absolutely sure you will not take a money order or bank certified check for these kits that you can then cash local to you?

I can't edit the first post, but I have added Western Union as an option.

where are you located? and how much less hp does this steel over the original?

I'm in the process of sorting thru an 84 300CD and may go with the upgrade. Can it be successfully converted to r134 with this upgrade? Is it, for the most part, a simple bolt up conversion?

The oil in the compressor is for 134, and the compressor is much more efficient than the R4. The 7 cyl is even more efficient (and smoother) than the 5 cyl. I have has very good results with 134a with these systems.

Thanks, I've got a couple 300CDs in the shop and I think one of them needs a new compressor. When I get that far along I'll contact.

Yes I have an extra compressor (5 cyl), but only have the 7 cyl for the special. I can make up a hose kit with about an hours notice....Rich
