GM A/C Compressor rebuild kits?

Does anyone know where I can get a rebuilt kit for the gm ac compressors? The only thing leaking on mine is the outer edge and I can't justify spending $150-$200 for a compressor if I can get a rebuild kit for all the seals, especially when my clutch is still good too.

thanks guys

I have a perfectly working compressor off my 91 formula. Let me know if you want to work something out.

When was the last time it was charged and used? Mine passed the vacuum test, but leaks around the outer edge seal on the compressor, but the clutch works fine. My problem is that it leaks when I put it under pressure for charging it.

Does yours have the low pressure switch on the top of the backside of the compressor?

Is it for R-12 or has it been converted for R-134a?

You have any pics of it??


Thanks
