99 Allure Dash air lost freon

Yahoo Message Number: 80909
Hi Fellow vintage coach owners. Our 99 Allure dash air lost freon at around 80k miles. Problem reoccured the High side Hose on the compressor again became loose and the compressor quit operating due to low pressure freon. Tightend up again and rerouted the line so more flex will be available less stress to loosen Hose nut. Found a little oil in the line at the compresson Sleeve. My Plan is to Dygrind off the sleeve only enough to allow two SS Hose clamps to tighten the hose better to the fitting. Lucky there is some freon in the system. Bought three pounds of new Freon with one ounce of oil per can to recharge the system. I Have a gauge set to moniter. I know this comes up time to time and just want to put this on the Table. Years Back I use to install home made auto A/C on trucks remember Johhny and Mac units. Hose clamps were used in these custom units. Also a Tire Issue having Just put on a set of Coopers all six and have put on a little over 2k miles on them. Coach rides great and no road noise, Thought the front end was off but the fronts have no sidewall wear like the Goodyears and our tire pressure is lowerd to 110 psi and tire temps are cooler running 20 or so degrees cooler then the Goodyears. Any thoughts on this, Thanks Ken Retired Cat Tech! 99 Allure 30356 Feel free to e-me off the group.
