it's great to come here and still see blackarrow posting his diagrams which do help a ton and see some other posters posting.

Make sure you change your orifice tube also when you replace the condenser. If you haven't changed the drier/accumulator when you had the a/c compressor changed, you probably want to change that out also. That way you pretty much have a brand new system and want be putting trash into the other components.

You can just change the condenser but depending on the price, you might want to just do it all if you are doing it yourself. Also, make sure you vacuum the system down to check for leaks before adding freon. Check or replace your o-rings also so you know they are good when putting the connectors back together.

If doing it yourself, you'll probably need to go to your parts store and pick up a set of disconnect tools so you can pop the lines off where they connect.

Never changed this stuff on a car but been doing it on my uncles drumptrucks which is the same thing, just more room to work in.
