A/C Question
My Compressor died on me(was ice cold before the bearing died),
Going to replace compressor and drier here soon before it gets to warm again but would like to know if flushing the the system will be fine or will i need to replace the condenser as well.

A thorough flush of the condenser and evaporator, along with a new drier and expansion tube should do it.
If the condenser wasn't leaking before, I see no need to replace it now.

When you pull the orifice tube, if it has metal shavings in it you should back flush the system. If the clutch bearing went out and not the internals on the compressor then there is no need to flush.
