(You save)
Keep your air conditioning dry, clean, and sealed with the Four Seasons A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly / A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose (MPN 55308). It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2001 Ford Taurus and 1996-2001 Mercury Sable — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level application details. This part is cataloged under both names, so you may find it listed as an accumulator-with-hose assembly or as a refrigerant suction hose.
The accumulator/filter drier works as a filter, removing moisture and contaminants from the A/C system that flushing cannot clear — which is why replacing it is essential during service. Moisture is absorbed through a desiccant bag; a leaking or open system can saturate that bag within a few hours, leaving the unit ineffective.
Quality welds: built for a durable, leak-free design.
Installation hardware: the necessary gaskets, o-rings, and seal are included.
Proven experience: backed by over 50 years of mobile A/C expertise and produced in an ISO/TS16949 & ISO14001 certified facility.
Replacing the accumulator/filter drier whenever the system is serviced is required to validate compressor warranty.
