Need to replace a/c compressor.... 900

Hi Guys! It's finally getting hot here on the NC Coast, and my a/c doesn't hold refrigerant for too long, so it's time to replace my original compressor and all the associated parts. Hoping to flush the system and not replace the evaporator, I'm sure that's a nightmare. I'm looking at a GPD kit from Rock Auto. Any suggestions or cautions? I've done this on other vehicles, but never on a Volvo. Thanks!!

      Thanks, Aleekat. Is he a rebuilder? I intend to go new, not rebuilt. Kit includes new compressor, receiver/drier, orifice tube and seals.

          I guess I should change the condenser as well.

            Found a new Nissens condenser unit on sale on Ebay for $88.95 delivered, list price over $400. Anyone use one of these?
