Need information on sanden compressor, I have the mount for a sanden compressor for a 2F, but not sure which one that will take the larger stock 2F belt. Any help appreciated I have this bracket

I’m trying to picture this compressor - is this the one that looks like a York?

Sanden’s mount horizontally. Modern style of compressor since the early 90’s.

Heh heh, you said “Mount horizontally…”

Sorry, I will go try to add value somewhere else since I am not contributing to the technical content of this thread…

You add “character content”, which is sometimes more important.

“Mount horizontally”

Who would have said this, Beavis or Butthead? Not too familiar with the show.

This is the type of compressor and this is the mount on a 2F, Iam hoping I can find one with the larger V belt, groove.

This condenser looks like it fits very nicely: 75 Pork Barrels, Two in the works, - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/75-pork-barrels-two-in-the-works.1239041/page-27#post-15830974

Has anyone used a kit like this to replace the factory hoses for the AC? It seems the fittings on my factory AC is all -an fitting. Not sure about the orings, still in planning stages.

R-12 is 45° not 37° (AN) so good chance you are seeing that..
R134a is going to be O-ring and the Amazon has better pricing for hose kits..
I've bought this kit twice..

So @J Mack , will these fitting work for 79 factory Toyota AC?

I believe the switch from R-12 to R-134a began in the late 1980s early 1990s.


Look for R-12 to R-134a adapter fittings "45° to O-ring" and then you could replace all the hoses with newer barrier hose and fittings but unless you're updating your entire system I would stick to the R-12 system and fill it with the R-12 Eco safe refrigerant..
