Interested in the A/C unit in my Ford 2002 Econoline
So I recently bought a 2002 Ford E-450 Super Duty 7.3L Collins school bus to convert. I have been wondering about the A/C unit in it and have been having trouble finding information to answer me. So I am wondering if there are 2 seperate A/C units for the vehicle, one that ford put in the truck and then left a split for the rear A/C that collins added in. I would prefer to keep the A/C up front when I am driving but if it all must go I will survive. If the back and get blocked off and the front still run on the compressor that would be great, if it must go, would there be a replacement system that would give me just things like defroster and driver A/C?
Another option I was curious about was if the alternator would be powerful enough to run the rear electrical A/C that I will be replacing the old one with, it will use a good chunk of power. Not sure if an alternator upgrade would be necessary or a solution... All of this is just thoughts and I felt like this might be a good place for some resources.
