Ford Bronco A/C Condenser Assembly 19C600 Installation & Hose Routing Diagram

AI caption · Photo 265 of 529

This document is an exploded-view illustration showing the installation of an air conditioning condenser assembly (part reference 19C600) at the front of a Ford truck/Bronco radiator support. The main drawing shows the condenser assembly with its mounting brackets and screws, along with two torque specifications: 21-55 ft-lb torque for the larger fasteners and 10-14 ft-lb torque for the smaller mounting screws. Callouts identify the ambient switch, a nut (45264), and an air conditioning identification tag on the radiator support panel. An arrow labeled "SEE VIEW A" directs the reader to an inset drawing in the upper right titled "HOSE ROUTING FOR 8 CYLINDER ENGINES (VIEW A)," which shows the refrigerant hose routing with fittings positioned at approximately 45 degrees. A second inset in the lower right, labeled "6 CYLINDER ENGINE," shows the alternate hose routing and fitting arrangement for six-cylinder applications. From this diagram, a reader can learn how the A/C condenser mounts to the radiator support, the fastener torque values required, where the ambient switch is located, and how the A/C hoses are routed differently between 8-cylinder and 6-cylinder engines.
