The seller sent me a "New" compressor. This time as soon as I received it I opened the box and checked. Much to my disappointment it too was damaged and had a bent pulley!!! I took a picture and sent it immediately and in my haste I texted him asking if he had bought a bunch of junk surplus...
Update on AC compressor. I bought a Red Dot (Sanden) AC compressor on epay. "New" in the box surplus. It had a clear dent on the pulley from an obvious drop. I didn't notice it until after I mounted the compressor and spun the pulley. I contacted the seller and explained the issue and he...
I am in the process of installing one in a 2 man hardtop Avenger unit. I completely disassembled my evaporator unit to clean, repaint and custom mount. With the required components in the evaporator, the blower motor, coils, electronics, etc, I don't think you could put it in the turbo dog...
Buttoned up the tail lights and rear side markers today.
Painted and mounted a tach. I looked at numerous locations for mounting. I decided I like a lower mount rather than off the top of the windshield.
2 steps forward and 2 steps back. Got the clutch off, destroyed it doing it. Replaced the water pump pulley with a 5 groove (arrow 2). All new belts, it needed them. Got the AC Compressor mounted (arrow 1) and found a flat spot on the pulley. Turns out it was dropped at some point prior to...
Mine won't ever be "restored" for 1 simple reason, they won't let me have the SAM missile launcher :D One mistake I made was selling the original HMMWV wheels and tires when I put the H2 wheels and 17" tires on. I'll probably end up finding a set at some point and having them for off road...
Had a delivery today. Still have to figure out how to get the fan clutch off before I start messing with the rest of the AC. That's a project for tomorrow.

I think GovPlanet does a great job with pictures and video that you likely won't get in a private sale. That said, good luck finding a private sale for less than $15K.
Well that didn't work. 90-120 psi did not release the clutch. Any other suggestions?
What are the 6 little screws on the back side that remove towards the pulley?
When I replaced the taillights a couple of years ago I noticed all the connectors were dried out and cracked. At the time I just gooped them up with dielectric grease. I have since purchased replacement connectors and with redoing the light buckets and all, now is a good time to fix it. The...
My dash cluster worked but had some issue from age. Some of the brackets that hold the gauges in were cracked or broken. Everything was just old, 29 years old to be exact. So I built a new gauge cluster and updated the water temp gauge. I kept the original speedometer but it had its share of...
Continuing the radiator removal, I found the metal lower radiator hose/connector in somewhat rusty condition. While I have it apart i'll replace that. Overall everything looked good. The belts are a little stiff but not cracking, i'll probably replace them while I'm right here.
After...
I started removing the radiator stack so I can change the water pump pulley to a 5 groove to prepare for an AC install. Also the radiator has a couple of corner brackets that have come desoldered from the core. Once I get it out, drained and dried I'll get the corners fixed.
In the mean time...
I cleaned up the rear corners and replaced the light buckets. Although I ordered the correct rivets they don't seem to be correct. It took a while to figure out how to get them right. New reflectors on the way as well.
