99 silverado 5.3
Replaced compressor, drier, orifice, manifold line, condensor, flushed evaporator, pulled vacuum for couple hrs, let it sit, no leaks, installed about 2 1/2 to 3 cans of r134, cools great but after a couple of minutes the drier frosts over, any help would be appreciated

Re: 99 silverado ac drier frosts up
According to my references, the Crew Cab model takes 36 ounces of R-134a while the regular cab model takes 32 ounces. Charged directly from the small "12-ounce" cans without using the proper equipment, you won't notice that the actual amount each can holds often varies quite a bit. So I think what we have here is an incorrect charge amount.
