Heater core, Air Con Evap from USA?
 

Hey guys.
Does anyone definitively know if a Heater Core and Air Con Evaporator from Rockauto will fit our RHD WG's?
They don't list LHD or RHD.

I was led to believe they won't but a photo of the heater core looks the same.

Cheers,
Ruffy.

Hey,

No it won't. I was as in the same position about 9 months ago. Rockauto parts are made for the American market where they drive on the other side.

I was taking mine out and brought it to a radiator repair station. They usually also take care of the heater core and the evaporator. I got mine refurbished and it works like a charm. Is a bit more expensive though but at least you know it's working.

I had also one of my A/C lines fixed since the valve was leaking. I brought it it to shop where they replaced parts of the line with a rubber hose and a entire new valve assembly. The lines you find on Rockauto are also not made for the Australian WJ / WG.

Hope this helps.

Thanks mate.

I thought that might be the case.

My Aircon Evaporator has sprung a leak and if I'm pulling the dash then I'm doing the heater core while I'm in there.

Cheers,
Ruffy.
