    Hey guys,

    I'm in the middle of replacing my AC on my 2005 tacoma with the 4L V6 and I bought a kit from Napa to replace the receiver dryer, and I'm pretty sure I figured out where to install it, but I don't seem to be able to get access to where it is. Does anyone know if the condenser and dryer are one piece as a whole and you can't replace just the dryer, you need to replace the entire thing?

    In the picture I believe the dryer is in the round recessed cap on the bottom of the condenser below where the AC line attaches.

    Help soon would be appreciated so that if I have the wrong part I can get a new condenser/dryer assembly on order asap.

    Thanks!

    Here's the layout for 05; looks like one piece, with the dryer integral to the condenser.


    Edit: Of course you wouldn't buy the OE condensor; AM ones are available for about $100 or so. Be sure to use new oiled 0-rings on assembly.
