Go with an aftermarket system. They will work a lot better.
My truck a/c was complete with just a bad compressor. After the rebuild with new a/c compressor,dryer,expansion valve duct hoses, diverter box and converted to r134A it cools like a 1971 unit. It really is not that cool. The big thing was getting the system flushed,converted and charged. This was required for a warranty on the compressor After installing all the parts at apoximately $400. It was another $400 for the flush charge convert and refill. Makes the price of a new unit seem resonable. If I were to do it again I would have an aftermarket installed by a professional a/c technician and be done with it. I did not have to buy any hoses or other major parts. A good aftermarket a/c unit is one item that will increase the value of your truck. Have fun
