Need A/C charging advice for 95 E150

My van with the 5.0 liter engine puts out just a semi cool A/C air so I hooked up my automotive A/C gauges to the system and is is what I got:

High Side 105 PSI

Low Side 75 PSI

86 degrees F ambient temp with 60% humidity

Anyone have a charging chart for this vehicle and can tell what my pressures should be? Would really like to have A/C!

You can also post this in the Misc forum under A/C & Heating------someone there will have an almost immediate answer.

I just had a few A/C components replaced and it required a charge of 42 oz R134a--spitting ice cubes now which is great during this midwest heat wave we're currently enduring.

If those are compressor running reading you have a bad compressor.
OR at the lo hi point (Fixed Orifice Tube) the hole is too big.
