be careful what fits what.
try to match compressor numbers.
some odd combos in these years.
i had trouble getting one for a 94 4.9, different then all the rest.
i would call with as much info as possible.
try to get pics of rear to look at.
one of these says factory air and one is added if i read it right.
my 94 looks more like the first one.

I would really urge you to rethink buying either of those compressors.
Four Seasons compressors are truly a case of "you get what you pay for". That price is very tempting, but when (not if) it fails, you will have saved nothing.
Four Seasons has the highest failure rate of any compressor remanufacturer out there. You "might" get a good one that will last a long time, but the odds are very slim. A good reman FS-10 compressor will cost in the neighborhood of $150. There are very real reasons those compressors are only $43.
Caveat Emptor
