Keith, please tell us more about the "cross-flow" style condensor, such as where to get it, and exactly how it is better than the original.  I live and travel in hot places, and I am converting my camper AC system to 134-A, along with searching out a leak and hopefully repairing it.  If I need a new condenser, perhaps I should get one of these.

Thanks, David McNeely
