Source for dash AC condenser 1998 U270

I ruined my dash ac condenser (side mount at back of engine.) I've got a call into Foretravel Parts but no answer back. It is the 12,500 BTU system and the condenser is 18x18 with two rows of 16 coils. Leaving for 6 weeks at the end of July. Have found a local garage that will replace it and the dryer.

You should be able to Google air conditioner condensers and find a close match. I don't think there's anything particularly special about the ones in our coaches.

A couple of excellent automotive air conditioning forums are the following:

A/C Forums - Automotive Air Conditioning Bulletin Board

Automotive Air Conditioning Information Forum - Index page

They might be able to point you to good sources.
