Re: Dirty Dingo LS Low Mount A/C Bracket

One of the reasons the DD sits in further is that it uses the smaller Sanden compressor. It is about 85% of the displacement of the larger Sanden. The Alan Grove bracket seems to be the same one Vintage Air sells and their kit uses the larger Sanden.

I saw the DD mount too, and I need the extra clearance, so I called Vintage Air and asked if the smaller Sanden would work. They said it should as long as it was being overdriven from the dampner pulley but I would be giving up some compressor displacement.

Im in Phoenix so I will need all the ac I can get, but think the smaller Sanden will be fine with good cab insulation and correct condenser and fan. Really dont want to notch my frame rail for the bigger Sanden

If you go with the DD bracket the smaller Sanden's ports look to point straight up into the engine block. Would be interested to hear if this was a problem using the smaller compressor
