I'm looking for some links that have direct replacements for the x-changers.I'm sure you guys have been threw this before so sorry for the repeat. I have a phone # to check if the oem is still available and $. I'm hoping that there are some varieties so I can compare and get some feedback. Thanx

This what happened to my CAS CCHE.

My truck is not lowered. MATs showed absolutely no improvement over stock. Lower hose fitting had to be replaced because the one supplied hit the steering box.

This thing is very vulnerable to damage. I would not recommend it.

GM ripoff

GM ripoff

I just checked w/ a GM supplier and they told me $570 + shipping for a brand new one. I don't think so, they have got to be out off their melon! Anyway still searching if I find out I'll let you know grahamstein.

Try Ray Moore - Rayssyty@aol.com -

He used to work for PAS and has some left over parts. I got a replacement mounting kit for mine from him. (I foolishly dumped those parts when I installed the CAS piece.)

The CAS unit is not all bad.

You may get one around $250.
CAS service flat out sucks and they still supply the wrong fittings.
Don't use their useless scoop unless you want it to look like those pics.
It bolts in stock placement, but may require some extra washers to get the brackets spaced evenly. Supposedly due to differences in GM manufacturing.
The CAS brackets can be modified so that the Cooler can be "pushed" up higher for better ground clearance.

I'd say in performance it is equal or marginally better than the stocker just b/c it flows more.

If price is driving your decision that's a cheap replacement.

Griffin makes one that can be fitted into the stock brackets, requires cutting.
No idea what fittings it comes with or how it works.

Air/Air is alot more involved, probably $800+ and lots of installation.

I have a stock one that is in perfect working order from what I know. I only took it off the truck because it was in the way of my WG.

Let me know what you think is fair for it and we can work something out.. it is just sitting around.

You can contact me on the list.. or at nick.steffens@usionline.net and my IM is SteffN3

Later

Too bad the CAS Lower Heat Exchanger didn't improve performance, has a shitty customer service relationship & had poor workmanshipt...cause it sure was a pretty piece and cool to look at.
