I recently had some front end damage on my 09 Lancer Gts 2.4L. Both of the top and bottom A/C lines that connect to the condenser core are crimped. I would like to know whats the difference between the two lines and what the part numbers really are and where they go as far as installing them on the condensor core. When I called a parts vendor, he gave me two part numbers, 7815a736 & 7815a068. Upon looking up these part numbers on Parts.com I found out that Part Number 7815a736 is the Discharge Hose for a 2009 lancer Gts, but it doesn't say where it goes on the car, or whether it is top or bottom, etc. As for Part Number 7815a068, it is a front A/C hose for a 2011 Lancer DE 2.0. Then I come to find another High Side Hose on Ebay being Part Number 7815a047.

Here are 3 links of what I am seeing:

Just order both compressor hoses, high side and low side hoses. cant help with part numbers as they may vary by application. If you go to the dealer, then they will use dealer numbers, go to a parts house they will be different. GL

Thanks, Im not going through a dealer. I would love to just do that as you said but let me clarify. I don't just want to buy a random part number from a vendor before I understand some things, unless I am absolutely sure it is what I need and if the parts are correct. I will break down my questions.

1. Are both A/C lines coming off the condenser core considered "discharge hoses"? If not then what are the two called?

2. If yes, then the only difference between the two would be "high side" and the other would be "low side"?

3. If this is is the case, why then did the vendor give me Part Number 7815a068, it is a FRONT A/C hose for a 2011 Lancer DE 2.0. What is a "Front hose" is it top or bottom in correlation, and why is it for a 2011 Lancer DE 2.0?

These lines are VERY particular to the cars setup.

Both lines coming off the condenser are high pressure. The only thing I would call them are condenser inlet and outlet. Why not go to a local autoparts store if you don't want to talk to a dealer. Just call a dealer and get the mitsu part number for both lines, then use their number to cross to an aftermarket.

Thanks for the tip, I will give that a try!
