No, the compressor mounts and the dash mounted evaporator are different. It might be able to be adapted with a great deal of work but the power in a Samurai will suffer severely. We are talking downshift to third gear on overpasses!
I am working on that exact conversion. Will it fit? It depends on exactly what you mean, it is not an exact fit and will not just bolt together.
The compressor mounts are different. They can be modified to fit though with drilling and welding.
The inside evaporator discharges in the same general area but some sort of adapter will be required. It's mounts are slightly different.
Use this documentation to decide for yourself:

It is a nice AC install manual for the '92 Suzuki, very informative and shows the complete installation in great detail.
Generally, I would say it will fit with a gross helping of interpretation, good luck.
add more coolant. if it is still set up for r12 buy a r134a conversion kit at parts store.
Some do, some don't
The Sidekick 1.6 Liter 16 Valve conversion is by far the most popular. The 1.8 conversion could be done but they only used that engine for a couple of years. It is not a popular engine. I have the 1.6 conversion is a 1986 Suzuki Samurai. The major components are: Transmission adapter to connect to the Samurai transmission. Engine mounts from Sidekick Oil Pan and Oil Pick-up needs to be cut down unless the Samurai is raised to allow room for front axle. Computer and wiring from Sidekick must be installed into the Samurai. All of the engine controls, air filter, MAF, high pressure fuel pump. There is a speedometer conversion as well. It adds a magnetic (reed) relay to the speedometer and lets the computer know when the car is moving. -EVERYTHING- moves over from the donor vehicle including (most times) the third member gears because they are lower than a Samurai. Samurai=3.73 Sidekick (auto)=4.62 Sidekick (Man)= 5.12 All of these items can be purchased separately from several Suzuki aftermarket suppliers on the web.
Yes It has
there are 2 systems. in 1995 , the car was sold with both r12 and r134, different major parts. so are not interchangeable. 95 and back, but 94 and back can be. but 96-98 is a family. and are compatible. hope that helps. http://www.kick-fix.com/air-conditioning.html I am pretty sure it will, I know a '96 sidekick or tracker will fit. Most of the sidekick tracker stuff works. Check out the x90 yahoo group, very helfpul there.
Open the air cleaner box lid, remove the old, put in the new, put the lid back.
Remove the drive belt from the air conditioner compressor. Remove the air conditioning hoses from the compressor. Remove the retaining bolts from the air conditioner compressor.
Replace the spark plugs and plug wires. Replace the distributor cap & rotor. Replace the air & fuel filter.
Bad belt. Worn tensioner. Bad compressor.
Buy a kit at Wal-Mart or auto parts comes with instructions
The air conditioning drain can be found on the bottom of the air conditioner compressor. The drain hose will go from the compressor to the bottom of the engine compartment.
maybe your a/c has problems try to check the a/c maybe its time for maintenance or repair
