Not even shure you can get R12 anymore but not shure how much you could sell that stuff for becauce it's not that expansive to get a retro kit for R12 to R134A & R134A is cheep. I have 3 12LB cans & not quite shure what to do with it. Gess ill just hang on to it cuzz I might need it some day. Ya never no.  I always felt R12 worked better than R134A.

When the AC clutch siezed on the Liberty I did the job myself. I had the R143 reclaimed and then swapped out the compressor (can't swap just the clutch with the Liberty).  I had to by the air dryer and the evap line to get the warranty through Advance Auto.  After the repairs I had the system recharged.  When I called the dealer it was estimated at $1200 and a 1 year warranty.  I did the project for a little over $400 and I still got the 1 year warranty.
