Upgrades and Aftermarket - 6.0L EngineUpgrading and adding aftermarket equipment to your 2003-Up Super Duty or Excursion with 6.0L Power Stroke diesel engine. Please confine discussion of topics in this forum to those items that are specific to the 6.0L Power Stroke engine.
Which vendor had the A/C bypass valve that would bypass the heater or something to that effect? I know their was one on the old Dieselstop site. Thanks
I think the valves are just ball-type valves that can be purchased at Ace hardware/Lowe's/Home Depot.
I've been wanting to do this mod, too. I only think about it when it really starts to get hot, though.

the 2005's had this already. i dont know how it could possibly drastically reduce temps. The wifes truck doesnt have one in the f150 and its significantly colder than my truck WITH the device. Its cold, but i would hate to feel the ac on a truck without it if it really makes a diference.
