Default low side retrofit adapter nipple 89 dakota v6 -- no luck!

Hello everyone, my first post, saying hi and asking for help with something.. Searched, and found nothing..

89 dodge dakota v6.

retrofitting a/c... Problem is I only found an adapter for high side. Tried every adapter at every auto parts store in town, none fit on my original low side fitting. Should be a standard fitting, and a standard retrofit adapter, but its NOT.

Any suggestions? thanks in advance...

-Dan

i can tell you this on my dakota it was a std one from auto zone but it points straight out a the front of the engine so you have to shut off the engine and pass the hose under the belt then you can start and fill it with r134a
