That's the correct belt. And I can assure you that even the stock military versions require that you loosen the compressor mounting bolts to get the belt on and off. Just the way they designed it.
Call the manufacturer and they will help you find a distributor in your area:

If you want to have it shipped - these guys carry all the sizes:

Yes the trinary switch mounts to the dryer.
The receiver/dryer needs to be vertical and needs to stay vertical. It is a refrigerant reservoir and the position of the ports is important as well as there being a sight glass at the top where you can verify liquid refrigerant being present. I used...
I installed everything and did the hoses quite a few months later. The one's attached to the evaporator are the hard one's but even those aren't that difficult. Routing them appropriately under the cab hinge with all the air lines and wiring is the part that took the most time.
The CTIS valve on the spare tire uses a SOLID bolt and nut for storage to hold the seal washers and keep out dirt and debris. That is NOT the banjo bolt that is needed when installing on the truck for service.
Belt is 1/2" wide, 55" long.
Compressor to bracket bolts are 10x1.5x110mm
Upper to lower bracket are 10x1.5x30mm
Condenser to frame - what you suggest should work. I grabbed what I needed from my bolt bins and didn't pay attention to size.
Crankshaft pulley bolts are 10x1.5x85mm
It looks like about 6 feet of the largest size, 8 feet of the intermediate size, and 12 feet of the smallest size will likely do the job. It's hard to measure accurately once it's installed and it depends on where you want to locate your drier.
Not since before the Afghan war. The latest HMMWV's coming out of depot are 6.5 turbo's with 4L80E's that will do over 80 MPH. The HEMTT A4 based chassis like the PLS, the LET, etc will all do 75 MPH or so with their CAT C15's. The JLTV will cruise at 75 MPH all day long. They found out in Iraq...
Honestly the whole idea and the appearance of those welds isn't confidence inspiring. Welding on castings takes a very controlled environment and in general isn't advisable if you can avoid it. Pre-heating to avoid hydrogen embrittlement and then salt annealing to ensure you don't have any...
Get rid of the Michelin MayPops as soon as possible. Those tires are all way beyond useful life - the military stopped using them more than 10 years ago so they are all much too old to use.
You can't do that. You're not envisioning how this system works. even if you moved the welds 90 degrees and put the spiders back in - with the spiders in place and the outer gear welded the entire unit would become solid and unable to rotate. The truck wouldn't move at all.
Right - I know how the system works. I'm trying to get @coachgeo to understand what we are asking - what's keeping the inner gear from sliding out off the nut roll pins?
I don't think that would work. The roll pins are not that long and the gear would walk out off of them. But I suspect you...
