    This is a nice product. Went out to start my truck and the AC compressor was locked up. Don't really drive the truck that often so no need for AC. This was a much cheaper alternative than buying a new compressor. Only con it would be alittle easier to install if it had a diagram for the spacer placement.

    Bottom Line recommended

    After reading some of the other comments about needing modifications to make it work, I was skeptical about purchasing it. However, It bolted right up to the mounting bracket for the AC compressor with no drama.

    Purchased to do a quick fix on a 1996 Ranger 2.3L until the weather warmed up. Unfortunately the pulley diameter is smaller and the fitment for the third bolt was incorrect so had to return it. If you are looking to bypass a/c on this particular model, just buy the belt for the application without a/c. Don't event have to remove the compressor. Price for the belt was the same as this bypass kit. Once the weather warms up, fix the a/c compressor clutch and should be good to go. I will say I appreciate being able to return with no issues.

    once you get your ac system drained by a professional (don't let it escape into the air)it is kinda simple to install you just need to be able to figure what all the bushings and spacers are for. I only needed on long bushing and the 3 similar bolts for my application. In the instructions it did not state what the large bolt/stud is for or the 6 bushings and the one spacer are for.
