Thanks @eaglescout526. Forgive my ignorance here, but I have some followup questions: 1) Is this bracket a two-part thing? If I find one, will all the pieces most likely be together, or might I have to piece it together from two separate vehicles? 2) I saw on a different thread that @Jeep Driver had a photo of a super clean and polished 2.5 L with the AC bracket (see Jeep Driver's photo below for reference). Again, I'm new to this world, but all the parts on that engine look ridiculously clean. Did you somehow get that bracket fabricated, Jeep Driver? Is that something that is possible? We live in a world of 3D printing, after all... Please, explain this to me as if I were a child, because in this instance I basically am.

Hello Everyone. Can someone post a picture of what an AC/Alternator bracket for a 1987 2.5L looks like? Alternatively, can someone let me know if I'm on the right track in my search (photos below). I understand they are hard to come by, but they are REALLY hard to source when I can't even figure out what one is supposed to look like. I've found many brackets in junk yards all over the Western U.S., but the mechanic who is helping me with this project keeps saying they aren't quite right (because they either came off of an XJ or they came off of a 4.0 MJ or some other complication). I am going to attach images of some of the brackets that I've found in my search. Perhaps one of these is actually the right one and my mechanic is mistaken? Help!
