Can't help with the receiver/drier, but there are rebuilt York compressors available for $125-$150ish. I bought one, stuck it in my trunk, and took it to my mechanic. Mine was leaking around the shaft seal. My mechanic asked what I paid. I was also having a 'major' (belts, valves, etc.) done, so it was a few weeks before he called me back. The rebuilt compressor was still in the trunk. He rebuilt the original one and charged me what the rebuilt part cost. The guy is a nut for originality and he wanted the original compressor to remain.
