AC compressor
What brand AC compressors is everyone using? I replaced everything on my system a few months ago including the compressor which has leaked from the start. I've verified its leaking from the front seal with a sniffer and UV die. I used a brand new Four Seasons compressor. It's still under warranty but before I install another one i was wondering if there was another brand you guys have had better luck with.

Put a Denso on my pal's 89 back in May, pretty quiet. UAC on my 01 Expedition kinda loud, the 01 Screw has a Denso and mostly quiet.
92 has UAC, 96 has a Four Seasons. No idea what is on the 88, but it is noisy and an FS6 I think.
IMO, roll of dice for noise output. Seems to me 8-10 years before these start to have a shaft seal leak.

Does anyone know if a Motorcraft compressor is still available and have the part number if it is? 1987 F150 with 4.9 engine and factory installed air. I can't find a catalog to look it up and I'm not finding it by searching various websites by application.
