A/C delete for Alternator - new fix

(1/2) > >>

hanajack:
     Went through all posts/topics on subject.  Ended up doing it another way using existing parts.  Took awhile to figure out but looks good and is fairly simple; and allows you to go back to original.

     The fix puts Alternator on big A/C aluminum mount; uses orig. A/C drive belt and same Alt. bracket.  Requires slight modification to A/C mount, a piece of metal and a longer bolt.

     If anyone interested will post more.

hanajack:
OK, I'll provide some details.  Need to figure out the photo thing.

AMCKen:
On my 81 SX4 a previous owner just ran a belt between the waterpump, crank, and alternator. As I found out in a previous adventure, the belt can be the same as the power steering belt. It's just a bit too wide and sits a little high in the grooves. The AC compressor is still there.
