a/c delete. What to do with hose to radiator?
My ac has never worked and I don't really need it. I live in Wisconsin and I've been just fine without it so far. I have removed the compressor but what should I do with the hose going to the radiator? Should I just cut it off and shove a bolt in there or what?

This one right here with the rubber hose connected to it. It looks like it just unscrews, but is there a threaded cap that can be put on there? The condenser looks like it just unscrews from the lines too right?

That's the condenser. The whole thing can come out if you have no A/C.

The thing on the firewall is the evaporator, functional opposite of the condenser. The big metal can attached to the evaporator is the dryer/accumulator.
The radiator has nothing to do with any of this.
