Bad Night Tonight...Need Help
I posted this in parts wanted as well....
Had a rough night tonight with the coupe, on my way to a picnic, turned on the A/C, heard a clunk, then the serpentine belt started whining real loud, so I pulled over asap. Turns out, the A/C bracket that the idler pulley and condensor bolt to had cracked, and eventually the idler pulley section finally gave way. From the looks of it, it had been cracked for a while, the seam was not shiny new, it was pretty dirty. So, my question is, should I go ahead and try to replace the bracket, if so, where should I start looking, or should I look into an A/C eliminator bracket. I don't use my A/C hardly at all, I prefer top off windows down, so it's not a necessity, but I would like to try to russle up some leads for both options....
Worst sight in the world is your Vette on a flatbed
Thanks in advance
