Keep moisture and contaminants out of your air conditioning system with the Four Seasons A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly / A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose (MPN 55556). It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-1996 Dodge Dakota — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details. This part is listed under both the "A/C Accumulator with Hose Assembly" and "A/C Refrigerant Suction Hose" part-type names.
Backed by over 50 years of mobile A/C experience and produced in an ISO/TS16949 & ISO14001 certified facility, this unit is engineered and tested for long-lasting performance. Replacing the accumulator/filter drier is required to validate compressor warranty and should be done any time the system is serviced.
What does this accumulator with hose assembly do?
It acts as a filter drier, removing moisture and contaminants from the A/C system while its desiccant bag absorbs moisture the flushing process cannot remove.
Which vehicles does MPN 55556 fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-1996 Dodge Dakota. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the correct application for your vehicle.
Are gaskets and O-rings included?
Yes. The necessary gaskets, O-rings, and seal are included to make installation easier.
Why should the accumulator be replaced when servicing the A/C system?
Replacing it is required to validate the compressor warranty and should be done any time the system is serviced, since a saturated desiccant bag leaves the unit ineffective.
Can a saturated desiccant bag be flushed clean instead of replaced?
No. Contaminants and moisture held in the desiccant cannot be removed by flushing, so replacing the accumulator/filter drier is essential.
