Well, a while back I posted to see if anyone had ever done their own AC work with the vacuum and flushing the system out, etc. I had to do a heater core repair in my 1995, and decided since my 2001 needs a heater core too, I'd just get the tools to do the AC myself. Anyways, long story short, I spent $180 on all my AC tools, bought the additional R-134 and some PEG oil, and spent $10 on a huge tray of AC o-rings from NAPA. It takes some special tools, but if you have them it is really simple.

Sweet! 42 is great! It is not hard to do just got to do it right. So are you selling the truck?

Potentially trading for a motorcycle. The guy is a Dodge guy so if I do trade it it should be going to a good home. After fixing it up I want to keep driving it.
