Adding A/C

Did a search but couldnt find an answer to my specific question

I have an 88 Ranger and am wondering how hard it would be to take the A/C from another truck and simply add it to mine. I noticed a Ranger at the junk that had A/C so I would need to know what parts I need so I can get it all at one time. I know I obviously need the compressor/ brackets and the prebent aluminum lines but what else is different ? Would I need to pick up anything under the dash. Im sure this has been done tons of times so if there is a write up avaliable online, I would appreciate a link to it. Thanks in advance... David F.
