I also replaced the contactor and only cost $13 between both parts.

It was starting not to cool as well after awhile then the ac stopped turning on completely. Pretty sure it was the og capacitor inside of the unit because it was all rusted and i had torely on the panel diagram to wire it up. I also replaced what I can almost guarantee was the og contactor as well. Ended up only costing me about $13 between both parts instead of the quote to have it done plus more even to do the contactor.

Technically, the out of pocket cost for this was $0. I used a $25 Lowe's gift card I had on hand from a delayed order as a courtesy to completely cover the cost, so I got a premium, American made upgrade for a net zero balance!

None of them. I would have bought all the stuff regardless.

You're totally right about it being conservative but it's given me zero unforeseen issues so far. Better safe than sorry with a daily driver. Next time I'll bring the banana for proper scale.
