That is what I do.

Yep, just got & installed OEM cap for A/H fan last week for $9 off Amz and 10 mins install. Replaced cap and contactor in compressor unit when we moved in 2yrs ago just for the fact they were 9yrs old and always keep 1 each of those 3 parts "in-stock." Not so much (well, yes so much) for saving $$$ but I couldn't survive 1hr without A/C. If the compressor goes that's beyond my reach but there aren't many other parts left other than 2 fans. and 2 controllers which are still under $50 on the web.
