Most tractors I have seen from the new generation have the a/c pump on the left hand side down by the side rail. My tractor has part of the engine casting in the way. Where are you supposed to mount the pump on this thing? any ideas? Homemade remedies? [Reply]   [No Email]

Mounting on LH frt side of engine. I just looked at the engine blocks and there was a SN break. If your engine block has no place to mount compressor then you'll have to mount it under the engine behind the frt axle same as some older 4020's. AR50297 CYLINDER BLOCK 1 - 303518 (NLA) (MARKED R43310 OR R45980) (SUB FOR AR43496) (ALSO ORDER AR43852, AR48289, R32617, R46158, AR52160) AR52061 CYLINDER BLOCK 1 303519 - (MARKED R47020 OR R47110) (SUB RE70108, SHORT BLOCK) (NLA) This post was edited by Tx Jim at 12:39:57 01/20/13.

But when I looked at my tractor, part of the engine block was in the way. I included a picture that shows what I mean. NO this isnt my exact tractor, but it was a picture I found on the internet that showed the casting that is in the way (I am not by my tractor right now) [Reply]  [No Email]

I am in another state right now on business. Was planning on going to a junk yard next Saturday out here and was wondering if I should add a a/c mount to the list, wondered what they looked like etc. I hope this picture helps.

You need a bracket for underneath. I don't think there's enough room to mount compressor over the engine similar to the JD utility tractors. [Reply]  [No Email]

Just open up the PC #856 go to parts index type in this number(AR48199) and it will take you to the page. There was also a bracket for over the engine part # AR44967. I beginning to think the underneath bracket I was thinking of was aftermarket mount for a Year-A-Round or Hiniker cab Normally I would download the parts photo but my new computer with Win 7 pro is giving me photo "Nightmares".
