Four Seasons A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly,A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose P/N:83073
Keep your A/C system clean and dry with the Four Seasons A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly / A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose (MPN 55631). This accumulator/filter drier drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1983-1985 Ford Mustang, 1984-1985 Ford LTD, 1983-1985 Mercury Capri, and 1983-1984 Mercury Grand Marquis. It filters the refrigerant on the suction side, using a desiccant bag to pull moisture and contaminants out of the air conditioning system — debris that flushing alone can't remove, which is why replacing the accumulator/filter drier is part of a proper service.
Built on Four Seasons' mobile A/C experience and produced in an ISO/TS16949 & ISO14001 certified facility. This part is listed under both names: A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly and A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose. See the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level fitment.
What does this accumulator/filter drier do?
On the suction side it filters the refrigerant, using a desiccant bag to remove moisture and contaminants from the A/C system — debris that flushing alone cannot remove.
Does it come with gaskets and o-rings?
Yes. The necessary gaskets, o-rings, and seal are included for installation.
Which vehicles does MPN 55631 fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1983-1985 Ford Mustang, 1984-1985 Ford LTD, 1983-1985 Mercury Capri, and 1983-1984 Mercury Grand Marquis. See the Buyer's Guide tab for details.
Why replace the accumulator when servicing the A/C?
Replacement is required to validate the compressor warranty and should be done anytime the system is opened, since a saturated desiccant bag can no longer absorb moisture.
Why is this listed under two part-type names?
It's cataloged as both an A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly and an A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose, so it may appear under either name.
