82.5 inch
Yes you can. Remove either the whole compressor or just the clutch.Buy an 82.5'' 6 rib belt,and install.BE VERY AWARE OF THE ROTATION
replace the a/c compressor by a pulley kit
remove compressor put a bypass pulley in its place replace belt
yes you can bypass ac with either a ac bypass pulley made by dorman or get a longer belt
if you can reroute the belt to bypass the ac compressor all you need to work out is how much shorter the belt is that you would require
To bypass your ac you can use a Valuecraft brand belt part # 360k4
The serpentine should route the same as with the AC except fro the AC compressor. The belt will go straight past the compressor, so you will need a shorter belt to make the bypass work.
No, Have a look at the way the belt is. You cant just get a shorter belt and bypass the AC compressor as the belt would foul on the tensioner. u need a AC bypass pulley and bracket, and so far, i can only find these genuine
You can't bypass with a belt alone. You have to by a bypass pulley kit. The new pulley takes the place of the ac compressor and you use the same size belt.
I had a 1995 buick lesabre and the A/C compressor went out in the winter time. I waited until spring to replace the compressor. In the mean time, I used a Dayco 72.10 inch belt and bypassed the A/C compressor and it runs fine.
You can bypass the a/c compressor on the 1989 cadillac fleetwood by simply using a smaller accessory belt. I have found that a 77 inch belt works perfectly. There is no need for a bypass pulley and you won't find one for this model anyway.
There is an available bypass kit, but the belt is the same. You remove the ac compressor and install an idler pulley.
