NC Tom Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Today I noticed that the reason my AC compressor has been wobbling and my serpentine best has been rubbing on my water pump is because two mounting bolts are gone. I cannot find a source that notes the size. Does anyone here have that info? Much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 No.12 on the parts diagram that’s for your bracket says it’s 45mm long. There’s 5 left if you want me to order two of them. J4007585 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZJeff Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Virtually all the bolts that go into the engine block of the 2.5 or 4.0 are going to be SAE thread, because the engine was designed LONG before the push to metric hardware that started in the 1980's. That's a good little tip to remember when you start searching for wrenches or replacement bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
