I just purchased a 1989 Supercab and I'm trying to get the AC working. The truck had no belt, so this is the first step. I'm having trouble getting the right belt for this vehicle and I'm not having much luck.
The compressor is located top-side, just above cylinder 4. It's a Sanden Intl. SD-508, Model # U 9556. There's a 2 pulley clutch mounted on the compressor. The power steering pump is to the right and below this compressor. An idler pulley is directly below the AC compressor.
I measured the pulley length with a small chain at 49.25" in the groove. After blindly purchasing 2 different pulleys, I decided to measure and get the closest one. It's a 49.625", 10mm. It looks close, but I cannot get past the obvious and figure out how to move the compressor enough so I can try to get this thing on.
Where are the adjustments for this thing?
The power steering pump and alternator are on separate, individual pulleys. The ps pump rides a pulley groove directly below the inside groove of the AC compressor. The alternator is off on its own, on the other side. I'm assuming that this is the correct setup, but I'm not certain. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
