AC Compressor Bypass Pulley too short?
Ill take pics around lunchtime and upload them, still at work awaiting the boss to return lol
I bought one of the Auto Parts AC Compressor Bypass Pulleys, didnt have the 300bux to replace the compressor and the clutches were messing up and felt like it was gonna lock down soon... but after putting it on ive noticed that its short... i guess... the pulley doesnt stick out as far as the compressor did... so the belts running right next to the motor mount bracket... ALMOST touching it... actually under load might be touching...
any way to fix this???

it was listed for 92-99 but prolly technically for the 96-99 series II... it worked... bolted in place... has worked well so far but i have to fix the tensioner this weekend and while the belts were off i was going to straighten that one out too
i was thinking some flat washers or something to just move it out more but i want something solid and reliable so i dont have to worry about it breaking later on down the road lol

Not sure if I buy into the HP gain because typically if the compressor isn't on, it'* a pulley like the bypass setup.
There is some nice weight savings though.
