Hey guys and girls I have an 01 f150 5.4L V8 Vin L Supercrew RWD with 316,000 miles. I have completely replaced the entire AC and heater system, but I seem to have a leak at my compressor. I purchased an O-ring kit specific to my model. Before I pull the Freon And take the lines off I was curious as to what O-ring goes on that line and how? I have the ac compressor O-ring that is just a metal spacer like piece with an O-ring on one side but wasn’t sure as to how it went on. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
As to the "metal spacer" are you looking at the quick release? Can you post pictures?
As far as what o-ring goes where, just remove the old one, match it up to the new one, oil and install. Repeat.

I’ve replaced all the old O-rings and have them all oiled up. This truck originally had a bypass pulley on it, so I wasn’t able to figure what Type of O-ring went there or if one at all. I will post pics now.
Okay, that looks like a manifold to compressor seal, for a different vehicle. Our trucks use o rings under the compressor manifold:
You'll find that those kits "specific" to our vehicles really aren't. They will have extras in them so the same kit will fit other vehicles so they don't have to make and stock an exorbitant about of different kits.

That pic up I posted is the input/output of your compressor. It just uses those two o-rings and the manifold at the end of your ac lines bolts to the compressor over those ports.

oh okay! I didn’t even see that picture! Thank you!
Yes, it did post rather small. If you bought a new compressor that's what you'll see when you pull the plastic shipping plug off, but don't until you're ready to use it, it's under a vacuum. It'll have new o-rings on it.
