compressor, lines, dryer bottle, condensor. That's about it, then you're stuck with the evaporator in the heater box. If you open the heater box you can remove the evaporator too, heat is a seperate heat exchanger, can stay in place..no problem. Just make sure you seal off the 2 little indentations in the heater box 1/2 where the AC lines went through (from the evaporator)
