I figured it out, I'm going to get the smaller 80's type compressor, and move it to the passenger side.   I'll use this to move  it over there

Couldn't  you buy those brackets and stuff off of one in a yard somewhere and save a ton of money?

Irish you should just start another thread. You're asking about a 94 what? Your orifice tube, PAG oil, refrigerant charge etc can all be answered if you put all of the vehicle specific info. But again start another thread in General discussion

I'm paying for convinence.  Plus around here the junkyards kinda gouge ya on that stuff.   They'll only sell the whole setup including accessories (its a yard you cant walk around in)  and they want like $550 for it...  A few months ago, I bought a new window regulator for the focus and the one from the ford dealer cost literally $40 less than the used one in the junkyard...   crazy.

Believe it or not, I had a guy offer to give me all the brackets and stuff for free off the front of a burb but I turned it down cause I don't want to redo my AC again. Have you tried Craig's List?

pretty much any 88-95 R/V or C/K truck system will work. Parts trucks are usually cheap investments but if you've got the coin get the new system.
