RE: IML: AC compressors

["Dick Benjamin" <dickb@xxxxxxxxx>]

The 81-83s use the modern small rotary compressor as made by Sanyo and
Sanden - the mounting is completely different.  A skilled welder and
machinist could make up a bracket to mount one, however, but the Mopar V2
compressor is rock solid reliable, very durable, and available rebuilt at
any auto parts place, so why bother.  You'll have to completely flush your
AC system to get the debris out of the lines, and replace the dryer.  Just
hope none of the debris got into the expansion valve!

Does anyone know what mods have to made to use the later compressor off the 
81-89 models on a 72 system? Will it bolt right on with the proper 
bracket(s)? I am going to the junk yard tomorrow to look around as my 
compressor seized last night.
