Dimension requirements for our brackets are provided within each bracket description on this web site. Please refer to these before ordering. Your satisfaction continues to be our goal.
COMPRESSORS
Compressor brackets are designed for the popular Sanden 508 aftermarket compressors. These compressors are used by all of the specialty vehicle air conditioner companies. Most of these companies use our brackets as standard equipment with their air conditioning systems. The Sanden part numbers for the 508 compressors are: V groove Freon 12 - 9285, V groove Freon 134 - 4509, Serpentine Freon 12 - 9537, Serpentine Freon 134 - 4514. Aftermarket Sanden 510 and 709 compressors, while not commonly used, will also fit our brackets. Although some factory air systems use Sanden style compressors, these Will Not Work with our brackets.
ALTERNATORS
Alternator brackets are designed to accept the popular G.M. alternators, both internally and externally regulated. These include the 10SI, 12SI, and the newer CS130. On the 12 o'clock alternators, the center to center of the mounting holes must be 6-9/16" for use with our brackets. The CS130 alternators are slightly smaller in diameter than the 10SI and 12SI alternators, and are available with three different mounting ear locations as shown below. These mounting ears use a metric bolt. Our standard bracket will normally work with the CS130, 12 o'clock alternator. We can supply some brackets for the 10 or 2 o'clock alternators on a special order basis. The 2 o'clock ear is usually used on low applications, where the alternator is turned upside down. The CS130 Alternators were used on late 1980-2000 G.M. applications. The 2 o'clock alternator was used with all 2.8L V-6 applications in the late 1980's (S-10, Astro Vans etc.). The 10 o'clock alternator was used on Chevy Caprice from the late 1980's to early 1990's, and Chevy Trucks from the late 1980's to 2000. The 12 o'clock alternator was used on the 1989-93 big block Chevy applications.
