AC Hookup on Radiator?

I was comparing my new radiator barn radiator to my old one today before I started tearing stuff apart and I noticed some, what I think are, air conditioning lines running into a loop around my radiator. This isn't something i've seen before. Does this mean i'll have to send my radiator barn one back? Here are some pictures of what I'm talking about.

Thats to the condensor. The thing in front of the radiator. Trust me no AC runs through the radiator.

Yep, that is an AC line. But it is running into the condensor, not the radiator. The condensor sits in front of the radiator and looks pretty much like a small radiator.

Be very careful with the wife mod. Uninstallation can be extremely expensive. Wife mods have been known to take the Jeep and all other mods during the uninstall process. Also, make sure you service your wife mod properly as often as humanly possible. Wife mods not properly serviced may malfuction or uninstall themselves at any time.

Are you looking at the A/C condenser and not the radiator?

Ok. Thanks guys. So just to verify, the condenser is in no way part of the radiator unit and it will not affect me when I go to swap out my old radiator for the new one.
