    WTB: AC compressor brackets for idi v-belt

    I don't need the aluminum bracket that attaches to the engine block in your first picture. Can you get a picture from the front side of the compressor? I only need the two stamped steel brackets between the aluminum bracket and the compressor. I would take the bolts if you wanted to...

    R134a conversion to 88 F250 with all new parts

    Good deal. I'll drain it for sure and pickup an 8 oz bottle of PAG. Well, I'll check my inventory before I actually buy some. I seem to do that a lot, buy too much for one project, forget I have it and buy more for the next project, in the meanwhile misplacing what I already have until I get...

    R134a conversion to 88 F250 with all new parts

    Lots of good info and a good explanation of vacuuming the system, thank you. I have a harbor freight ac gauge manifold and vacuum pump. I've had the manifold for a couple years but haven't used it and got the vacuum pump more recently. I have about $120 invested (after coupons) which I should...

    R134a conversion to 88 F250 with all new parts

    Thanks for the replies. PAG oil. Check. Variable red orifice tube (I think this was the cheapest one I could find anyway and probably what I would have selected). Check. Pressure switch. Check. So do I add the PAG oil to the compressor then seal the system then vacuum it? Doesn't the oil come...

    I have a 1988 F250 that I'm working on getting up and running and one of the next things I'll be working on is the air conditioning. It had factory AC but the compressor (including the brackets) and some of the lines have been removed and left open for who knows how long. So my plans are to...

    If i may ask what did you guy's pay for your truck or 7.3 or 6.9 powered vehicles?

    I bought my 88 F250 RCLB 4x4 ZF XLT Larait for $1000 about 5 months ago. Bald tires on gross chrome plated and flaking wheels. 4x4 doesn't work, transmission won't go into 4th gear, some clutch slippage and needs most of the A/C components replaced (compressor and bracket are not longer there...

    Yeah, my street is parking one side only, but that doesn't stop the jerks down the street (not the next door neighbors) from parking on both sides, sometimes in front of the community mailbox. I can't turn around in my driveway, that's for sure! But luckily the street is wide enough in front of...

    Wow, some good stupid people stories here. I'll share mine... I live in a small house on a small lot in a cul-de-sac so there isn't much street parking. Between my wife and I we have six cars plus a car trailer. Well, she has one car and I have the rest...but I'm working to reduce my...
