Need help with AC

I recently bought a 67 with dealer add on air that works, but it doesn't have a high/low pressure switch. The high and low side hoses are held on to the compressor with hose clamps. (seems to be working fine) It has been converted to R134 already. The compressor clutch is engaged all the time and it runs until it locks up. Maybe I just need a low pressure switch?
Can somebody tell me what pressure switch kit or part number I need and where to put it in the system?

My '67 had same set up, same hose clamps holding it together. Worked, but leaked down in a day or so. I don't recall any pressure switches?(scrapped truck couple years ago). Still have most of the system though.
