If that shop can't get a compressor they are very very weak.
Go to another shop.
There is NEVER a reason to have customers hunting common parts .

And
I'm pretty sure they might have said condenser, not compressor. I base this on their being no reason to prefix a compressor part number with 'rv'.
Either way as long as it will bolt up, neither part is specific to a specific vehicle. Almost any brand of either will work in almost any installation.

They may be taking advantage of you.

The compressor is a standard Ford Part. It is on the engine supplied to Detroit Chassis who assembles the F53 chassis for FoMoCo. $164.00 on Rockauto.com.

That part number is not a compressor: That is a heater and a/c assembly for the MH, new part # RV219331. From what I can tell it is a combo heater core/evaporator unit.

$665 here:

You beat me there by minutes...
EDIT: But should it not be this part?
https://comfortairgr.com/shop/this-i...3155-rv201392/


EDIT #2: Cancel my last... It uses the first part!

I did look up on rock auto, and found three compressors with accessories, one was for 4 1/2 inch pully, the the other two where for 5 inch pully, but I don't know how to pick which one if it is a 5" pulley

Why is it at a shop and you're chasing parts?

Why are they looking for a compressor when the part # provided was not for a compressor?

The post requires careful reading.
They aren't looking for that part number.
That part number and manufacturers name is from an arbitrary part NEAR the supposed compressor, the one with the supposed hole in it.
It has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with anything.

This op,

The how do I get in a bunk op

The there's a noise under my sink, what is it op


I am saddened.
