    Push or Pull

    Must-do upgrades before I put my 1971 U15 back together.

    York AC SERP mount bracket ?

    I used a York compressor(SC206?) from a VW Jetta as it was smaller in size and easier to make fit. Probably pumps a bit less air but had to compromise... I bandsawed and rewelded the Explorer p.s. bracket to help fit it in.. Used the pulley from the Explorer a.c. pump. the clutch bearing was...
