special part of bulky airco/alternator bracket
« on: April 05, 2022, 18:24:15 »
I’m looking for a part (see blue arrow) of the bulky bracket for the air-conditioner compressor and  alternator USA version with air-condition.

If anyone has one lying around/doesn't need it, please contact me, thanks Peter

Peter,
That bracket is a piece of hollow metal tube with two metal tabs welded at the ends.  Maybe 1" diameter tube.
It is also same on the sedans.

Thanks Walter,

It difficult to find.

I hope a member who has removed the AC can help me with this part, that would be great.

If someone can post the dimensions, it seems something that would be relatively easy to fabricate.

manufacture can certainly be done with the exact dimensions.

But if someone has the original it's easier. The fit is then 100%!

Someone from Germany supposedly had the part and sent it to me.
After 3 weeks it still has not arrived so unfortunately that will not happen anymore.

Is there really no one from our community who still has this part lying around?

It would be great if one becomes available, thanks Peter

I may have one
I will have to go through my entire garage to try and find it
I've been aware for the past week, but it has not shown up, on first glance.

Ha Michael,

Thanks for your effort, but please, “hold your horses”.

As you know I found one in Germany, but it was not deliver.
We thought it was lost, but finally, after more than 3 and a half weeks DHL was able to get it from Germany to the Netherlands! Not really a speedy service.
