I am in need of mounting brackets for mounting the A/C compressor on my 1984 Vanagon 1.9L engine. Does anyone have VW part #'s for these two parts or thoughts on repairing them? The sheet metal bracket the goes around the bottom of the compressor has a bolt hole that was pulled though. I can probably get that repaired at a welding shop. However, the main mounting bracket (the one that bolts to the engine) in broken at the end nearest the drive belt. While new compressors are readily available, the mounting hardware apparently is not. I am not looking forward to a Georgia summer without A/C. Any ideas on sourcing these parts?
