    I've got it- don't think it has the pulley on it though (it does have the bracket for the pulley- just no pulley...).

        Do you need the compressor bracket as well?? Seems like the pulley would be fairly cheap to buy new, and probably not a bad idea.

          I think the pulley is jammed, that is the problem, if anyone knows how to try to remove the pulley let me know.

            There should be a round black plastic cover on the front of the pulley, pop it off with a screwdriver and you will see a 13mm bolt head. Remove this bolt and the pulley should come off. If there is still an AC belt on there, you'll have to loosen it using the allen head bolt that points down from behind the pulley- I think it's a 5mm allen wrench. Turning this bolt moves the pulley up and down along the length of the bolt, tightening or loosening the belt.
