All it takes is money! Hopefully you have a shop familiar with the Westy A/C and knows that the cabinet has to come down for access (top up, upper mattress out for access to the screws).
The idiot PO of my son’s ’87 thought he could fix the A/C himself, and promptly ripped the entire bottom off of the cabinet, breaking both fans. We scrapped the entire system and installed an upper cabinet from an early van, which we stripped and recovered with the correct gray Formica. I was able to get the gray door trim from Europe, so it came out really well.

yes Stuart..
I think so too...the A/C freon pressure came down a bit every year, recharged and working fine... but not as bad as this time...
I would think it's time for a complete overhaul... we will know tomorrow at he A/C shop...
thanks
