Question on replacing A/C hoses
I'm about to replace my A/C hoses. Do I have to remove the hood to access the hose that connects to the condensor? It looks like there is not enough room to access the connection. Am I missing anything?

I was able to get the hose connected on mine but ended up taking the hood off in the end to get it properly tightened. I was thinking that it might be possible to use a crows foot wrench.

My hood was off when I did mine, makes it much easier. If you remove the hood, mark where the bolts are on the hinges, to make it easier to align the hood back up when you put it back on!
