Who Rebuilds AC Compressors?

Who did you have rebuild yours and how did you like the price and results?

I went thru my 65 Coronet A/C compressor, just to make sure all was well. I have done these in the past and they are very simple. Get a service manual and do it yourself. It will probably only require a gasket set. And of course, a front seal (Do not touch the seal mating surfaces with your bare skin!). Lube with the oil compatible with the refrigerant to be used.

That's what I was thinking. Did you do a write up on your rebuild?

No. It's just routine maintenance.

I've found this Chrysler tech video highly informative...

The gasket/o-ring sets are almost damn near impossible to find since COVID. I have accumulated a lot of NOS in the last 2 years since I don’t know if it will ever return.
