1987 Chevy Caprice 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I took my car in and was told I have leaks near the compressor seals and the A/C manifold hose.

Does that hose come from the dryer and is made of rubber and aluminum?

Do you know of any good A/C repair shops that are reasonably priced in Jackson, NJ, 08527? Thanks

Yes, the manifold set is the hose assembly that mounts directly to the back of the compressor.They are aluminum and rubber.Best bet would be word of mouth for a good shop in your area, or you can search an ASE certified A/C shop in your area.They will have a tech there capable of repairing your vehicle
