The battery is moved, creating more room for the compressor.

This is the pre-bracket. There is just enough steel to hold it still so we could align the pulleys, more was added later.

Well the setup worked except the alternator didn't have enough belt around it (no picture) with the york on top and the alternator in it's stock location. Someone told me I couldn't do it so I gave them the middle finger and decieded to do this. (below)

This is great and dandy, but the belt was riding 1/4" off the tensioner pulley which is unacceptable. I have to reweld the alternator bracket to realign the alterantor and the setup should be finished.

If I hadn't cut through one of the a/c lines while removing a bracket the whole setup would have cost under $200.

Good job Keith. Who told you it couldn't be done? I can't wait to see this thing in action. Should be easier to change your tires out with a impact wrench, eh?
