A/C Hoses

Does anyone know where I can get both of the hoses coming off the compressor. One of them currently has a crack in it and needs to be replaced. I was thinking about getting a R-134 compressor, but how much does that cost? I can get the R-12 for pretty cheap because my grandpa is a refridgerator repairman, so it's almost free for me, plus he has all the equipment to evacuate and charge the system. Thanks.

I have an 86 IROC that origanally had R-12 when i first got it. It has been changed over to the R-134 Gas. The Compressor is still the same original one that came from the factory in 86 and still cools Great. The only things they did was change dryer and fittings and added some kind of oil to it. As far as hoses I would try an A/C shop, i know one in Fla that makes A/C hoses, but that wont help you out any out there. You could try a junkyard for hoses.
