    Complete removal of aircon and sundries from a td5?

    Wondering if a/ it’s posible and / has anyone done it?
    I understand there’s a non aircon belt ,and also that the poms have a bracket with an idler in its place however with the variants in air con compressors theres no clear awnser that I’ve found ...at the moment I’m farting around a compressor I don’t need and is prohibitively expensive when it seizes..big benefit is actual legg room for the passenger lol..

    My TD5 Defender didn’t have factory air con...I’ve since had a shop put a compressor in, unsure what they needed to do.

    Yea I’m not shure if the aircon mount is just there and requires only a shorter belt, or like the pommie models it has a bracket with another idler wheel

    I don’t suppose you have the old belt part number stashed away ?
    I’ve been trying to get info on removing the air pump for so long it’s not funny.....all I get is Chinese whispers

    Don’t suppose I could buy the air conditioning bits you don’t need? I have an air conditioned County that I would like to update to something more modern. I live in Gipsland so pickup would be easy. Cheers Mark

    If I can find out how to run the belts ur welcome to them.though I’m not shure wether the coweling under the dashwill have to be kept...the compressor has a striped thread but that’s an easy fix
