Detailed Description

This Four Seasons A/C compressor kit is built for Toyota 4Runner applications that require a complete system refresh rather than a single-component replacement. The kit includes the new compressor, filter drier, expansion valve, oil, and O-rings, helping address the core wear items involved in an A/C compressor failure. Part number 2079NK is a practical choice when servicing the air conditioning system on a 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner.

The included receiver drier/accumulator measures 2.500 inches in diameter and 7.000 inches in length, with pad mount inlet and outlet fittings. The expansion valve uses insert O-ring inlet and outlet connections, and the system is configured for R134a refrigerant. This kit cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Repair Issues

• No cold air from the vents
• Compressor noise or compressor seizure
• Moisture contamination after compressor replacement
• Restricted refrigerant flow from a worn expansion valve
• System performance loss from a failed drier or leaking seals

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle uses the 10PA17C compressor before ordering. Replace the receiver drier and expansion valve during compressor service, and evacuate the system before recharging with the correct R134a refrigerant and oil specification. Confirm all O-ring and pad mount connections are seated properly during assembly.

Quality Assurance

Four Seasons 2079NK is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. The Complete A/C Kit format helps ensure the major service components are matched for the listed Toyota 4Runner applications.
