I am looking at buying an after-market a/c kit for my truck and had a question. This is the kit I'm looking at: https://www.ackits.com/pc/AMA13253-7171/AMA13253-7171/Complete+After-Market+AC+System+%28AMA13253-7171%29

Now I tried searching but never really seem to get the answer I want. I did send the company an email on intallation and other information but I am waiting for their response.

So anyways, is the 3.0 wire harness w/o a/c the same as a 3.0 harness with a/c. My truck is a '94 Ranger. I was looking for anything that would look like it would go to the compressor if it was there but I don't see anything.

Any ideas?
Thanks

The kit claims to come with everything you need for installation. That isn't the answer you want?
 
says complete kit, so if it don't work send it back, all i notice was a note that said full fan shroud requied if not already equiped, . i would say thats an option, a used system,from a ranger 3.0, and i think LMC you can part a system together, if ya ask me last year, LOL i would have had a system, but i tossed it minus the Air compressors.(off road truck, planned on seting up onboard air)
 
Frankly if you weren't at the far end of pennsylvania
I'd say let's go junkyard shopping and get a complete "factory" system.

I'm generally suspicious of aftermarket A/C kits because osme of them
are cheap and don't fit or work well.

That probably comes back from my ranger originally comming with "dealer air"
from a dealer that was too cheap to use the real FORD dealer air kit.

Yes, the kit comes with everything. This I know. I was wondering how the compressor was going to get power and connect to the factory harness. Seeing how the website doesn't go into much detail, I thought I would ask on here to see if anyone knew if the harness would be the same. (IE: I don't have fog lights but I have the connections for them behind the bumper if I ever wanted to put them in.)

I'll check out LMC but I have been looking everywhere for a complete kit or someone who has everything to make a complete kit and that was the only place I found for my model and year.
