you should just need the compressor, lines and pulleys. i have never pulled one so i don't know if it is standard or metric. so i would take a phillips, flathead, dykes, 1/4" through 1" and 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, and 17mm. and a 12" cresent wrench just in case. oh, and a rubber mallet. you never can be to sure. haha.

OK, I have pulled Sanden compressors off these trucks. You'll need your regular metric tools. 15mm box wrench for front bolt on driver side of compressor, also a 14mm box wrench for rear bolt on driver side, a 14mm box wrench for front bolt on passenger side, and 12mm socket and long extension for the adjustment bolt. There's also a bolt that attaches the high and low side manifold to the rear of the compressors. There are several different types of Sandens used, all similar. The later ones have a high pressure relief valve on their rear side.

I would get as many AC parts off the truck as I could. Will you be using R-12 or R134a?
