Default A/C Vibration?

Hey everyone, I recently bought a 1998 Cherokee and I've noticed that when I run the A/C I can hear a vibration coming from under the hood, but I can't really pin point it. It kind sounds like a rattling from a sub, but I don't have a sub in my jeep. The mechanic I bought the jeep from said he basically replaced the whole ac system. From what I can see he replaced the lines, compressor, and I'm guessing the fan.

I'll probably look at it more tomorrow, but does anyone have any suggestions?

look through all the new parts and check connections and just the general "secure-ness" of all the new stuff, maybe something wasn't snugged down good enough and is vibrating on something near it, just look and check everything as a whole, I'm sure you'll find what you are looking for!
