1985 K5 Blazer: Added another one to the stable

[VileZambonie]

If I do it would be in the back of the Mutt. I can look around.

[VileZambonie]

I wonder if it connects to any of these brackets?

I found some pics of the front bracket and those dont look like them.

[Captkaos]

Any Luck Vile?

[VileZambonie]

OK I looked through the factory service manual and scanned the pic. I thought I sent you everything I had but maybe you can highlight what you are missing and I can look through 10 potential places I may have more lol

[Captkaos]

Based on your scan and this picture of the front of mine it looks like I am missing the lower piece that bolts to the head, the 2 rear ones are in the previous pics mounted to the compressor, and can be seen here also.



This is one picture I found from IH8Mud, it looks different than what you posted.  I know there is 2 versions, 84 - down and 85-up, I think what I have is what comes up when you google 911025TG09-090.gif, which is the one shown below from IH8Mud

See if this works:

Sunday, Oct 30th, 2011: Spent the afternoon tracing down all the wiring on the CUCV harness, got most of it done.

[VileZambonie]

Still without power up there so I haven't had a chance to look for those other brackets. Remind me later this week and if I have power there I will go hunting.

this is a 82 setup with A6 compressor  front main bracket

[Captkaos]

THAT is the bracket I need.  Got a close up pic of that?  Look hard to make?  Can I get some dimensions?

[junkman.]

I'll look this weekend how its made have you done a junkyard search on the web or e:bay
also there is a mount off the exhaust

I have based on images and research all the brackets except that one.  None of the yards nearby have these 6.2L's.

[1MCP7.3/87GMC]

Any particular reason why to go with a 6.2l vs gas? Is there more power or is it just to have the diesel?

[junkman.]

i took a look at the AC brackets and everything is all together can't even get a good pic

looks like your truck came with A4 compressor whats wrong with that set up

from the top the bracket  looks like the same one

good luck JM    hope this helped out

Diesel 4x4's can get up to 25mpg as opposed to 17mpg with a gasser.

Junkman.  My Blazer came with a 350 that I pulled out, the Diesel I got for it came out of a M1008 Military truck, it never had AC.  My truck originally came with a R4 compressor.  Vile supplied the A4 Compressor and brackets. 

The images I uploaded are from the internet, this is what I currently have as far as brackets.
