Default Car AC repair

My son’s Saturn AC does not work. I was making a trip to the junk yard. I vacuumed pumped the system out it would only go to 720 microns. I put dye in it. The compressor was bad and one flex hose had a very small leak.

I got two flex hoses and a compressor. I have on order a new drier, Expansion Valve and a O ring kit.
Working on a cars AC system is new to me but I have all the tools now.

I was thinking about putting on the new flex hoses and compressor testing to see if the compress works.
If it works then later in the week I will add the new drier, Expansion Valve and a O ring kit vacuum the system and charge it for good.

Does this sound like a good plan?
