If you are asking about the air conditioning compressor it is located on the bottom front passenger side of the enging. If asking where to buy one most all parts houses have them but be careful them may not have all the listings. Go to the internet and check it out for parts. I just saved over 200 dollars with the same parts store cause there computer only showed 1 unit but their web site showed over 5 different ones.
It does not have an Air Compressor. If you are talking about the A/C Compressor, then just look at the drive belts. One of these belts is driving the compressor. If it has one serpentine belt, it is driving the A/C compressor, PS pump, Alternator, & Water Pump. Just follow the belt to find it.
