Here are two kits we sell for the later model Vanagon. One uses the Sanden compressor and the other uses an aftermarket version. It just depends on which you want and what you want to spend: https://www.vanagain.com/shop/aftermarket-ac-parts-kit-for-sd-709-87-92-vanagon https://www.vanagain.com/shop/air-conditioning-parts-kit-for-87-92-vanagon-sd-709 If you have an 86-87 Vanagon you need to be sure what version of the compressor you have. They transitioned from SD-508 to SD-510 to SD-709 all in 87. You want to replace what you have with the same unit. If you have a question about what you have just send me a picture. Or use the pictures on my site as reference. Ken On Tue, Jul 17, 2018 at 11:34 AM Mike Miller <mwmiller6@att.net> wrote: > Please post the price to the list.
