Message: [QUOTE="6.7 Powerstroker, post: 1508586, member: 25084"] They called back and now say the compressor came apart and the have to replace it, the condenser, accumulator and it will be $2,300 altogether. This seems really high Especially since they said it involves 8 hours plus $1100 in parts and I looked on rockauto.com and motorcraft parts even with overnight shipping was like $600. I then asked him if I could buy my own parts and have them shipped and he started to say it would not include a warranty. So I told him these were motorcraft parts and he stumbled a little bit but finally said he could warranty and wanted me to send him a link to the prices to see if he could match them. I did see on eBay where you could buy an aftermarket kit for like $200 -$300 and included everything. Then I could just do it myself and buy a $100 vacuum pump from Harbor freight and vacuum it for 24 hours and then refill it with freon and only be in it a few hundred. Anyone try one of the after market online kits? Also does this sound like similar pricing from a Ford dealership? I really doubt I would put some cheap parts in it just because I'd hate to have to redo it in a couple years. Is it as simple as replacing the parts, pulling a vacuum, then refilling it? [/QUOTE]
