In order to get the new type of gas into the air-con, you need to put in some sort of kit. It is now illegal to use the 1991 old type of gas. With a bit of luck you may find a 2nd hand air-con unit that had already have been modified to accept the current type of gas.
I bought my previous A/C compressor for my 1991 UZZ31 from the exact same seller as the one posted above on ebay, they give you 1 year warranty on their product.
Cost Breakdown that i spent: - A/C Compressor : $225 - Installation + Regas: $400 Turns out pipe was leaking they had to do a new one to replace my old one: $150
Total cost me $800 for it to be running perfectly cold.
