Your cart is empty.This A/C compressor bypass pulley is a cost-effective solution to allow the original equipment drive belt to be used while bypassing an inoperable A/C compressor.

the ac compressor in my 93 buick park ave ultra seized and the pulley spun off the clutch. didn’t want to spend the money replacing the ac comp just for the pulley , this product saved the day , it lined up perfectly with the stock mounting holes , my only complaint is the bolts supplied with the kit DO NOT thread into the pulley ??? make sure to reuse the stock bolts , i did have to reduce the length of the spacers to line up the pulley . The pulley felt a little flimsy , i hope it lasts until i can replace the compressor

After a few months the bearing went out. It was a piece of junk. Don't buy it. I guess there is no warranty.

Used the wrong bolts and mounting hardware for my application. I had to drill out the mounting holes, and use bigger nuts and bolts. I used this part on a 1995 Buick Le Sabre.

It's a cheap replacement to getting a new compressor, finding whatever leak is in the system, then getting it recharged. As some reviewers have mentioned it has 3 holes, but only two are used. That is the way the compressor was designed as well. The pulley itself is made in of plastic, and mine has a slight wobble to it. I'm not sure what that will do to the durability of my belt. It also needed to be shimmed with a couple of washers to keep the belt from rubbing on the motor mount. In the end I would purchase again and might purchase an extra just in case there is a problem with durability. 3 stars for quality, 5 for value.

I replaced my AC compressor about five years ago and I wasn't about to do it again. This little gadget saved me from having to guess what size serpentine belt I would use if I wanted to bypass the compressor. Only three bolts hold it in place but they are very tricky to access so I paid the mechanic to do it. Took him about 2 hours. Well worth it imo.The horrible metal grinding sound is gone. Everything is good now, but we'll see if I regret my decision once summer hits!

I bought this for a old car I had and did not want to spend a bunch of money replacing the AC compressor since the hoses had leaks and ac was not working anyway. This saved me a lot of money and was easy to install. Hardest part was figuring out which size belt to buy after putting it on but that wasn't that hard. It came with directions on how to figure that out.
