I hear of the original compressors being replaced due to lack of volume. Most of the time. It just requires a new cogged timing drive belt. That Jim K at Applied has for $8. On most coaches. That cogged belt can be retimed in place. The original compressor is very simple to rebuild. Jim K also has that kit. If you know what a screw driver is. You can do it. There was an air filter in the original unit. That it's remains needs to be cleaned out. ( That could be your compressor issue.)Then you can install a simple external air filter. Seems to me. That it's simpler/cheaper to simply service what you have. Then to find a way to mount a replacement compressor.
