Help keep moisture and contaminants out of your air conditioning with the Four Seasons A/C Receiver Drier / Filter Drier 33553. This steel filter drier works as a filter for the A/C system, removing moisture and contaminants. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1986-1987 Dodge Charger, 1989-1990 Dodge Grand Caravan and 1989-1993 Dodge Dakota. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details. This part is listed as both an A/C receiver drier and a filter drier.
Why replace the drier: Flushing the system cannot remove the moisture and contaminants caught by the drier, so a new receiver drier / filter drier is needed. If the system has been leaking or left open, the desiccant bag can become saturated within a few hours, and a saturated drier can no longer do its job. Four Seasons states that the drier must be replaced anytime the A/C system is serviced, and that replacing it is required to validate compressor warranty.
Four Seasons brings over 50 years of mobile A/C experience to its accumulator and filter drier line.
