M1097R1 Factory AC?

[jwhmmwv]

Govplanet listing lists a AC compressor on my truck - wasn't aware of these A1 trucks coming with AC (it's a 93 M1097R1) - is this really the factory AC compressor (they are citing this picture):

No... 4 groove pulley could not support AC Never would have had "Factory" AC...

There is no AC in that picture.
As far as I know "factory" aircon didn't start until the M1114 series ECV trucks. Some 3 speed trucks did get the RedDot aircon, but that was an add on, and definitely not in your picture.

Thanks that what I figured - it looks like that is the water pump - and those are heater hoses coming off of it (could be wrong).

Yes, water pump above the crank pulley, belts going off to the alternator and power steering pump (hidden)

Thanks for confirming - I figured the same.
