My brother was able to get a nearly new (low usage), Delphi 1136460, 6460 compressor to be used on this truck. The one I took off had the large O-rings for the block fitting high & low lines in the rear of the compressor. I tried one of the new Sanden style Pro6Ten compressors, nothing but a headache, yet it also took the large O-rings. The Delphi 6460 has counter bores, I presume for Sealing Washers, but I am unsure which ones to use. The counter bores measure: .145in/3.68mm & .045/1.245 deep, 1.206in/30.63 OD, with a .645/16.383 OD hole. I have no experience with a compressor with counter bores. In the FJC catalog I found part #'s 4064 & 4061, but as I said I need help getting the correct numbers so I can purchase the correct items. Thank you in advance for any help. I could take a picture if needed.

send an e-mail to Jack or Tim and ask if they have the sealing washer kits available, I think you'll need one 5/8 thin and one thick for the deep hole.. Around here they sell the red and green thick washers, I don't have the number off hand, but you do need to use the one correct thick washer, and one thin that will keep your manifold "flat" when installed.

No go at ackits.com. They are out with no shelf date from their supplier. ANYONE care to jump in with ideas, suggestions, brands with numbers mostly wanted. I have a week and 1/2 before my open heart surgery and I am running out of time. As always, thanks in advance.

Moderators. Please delete this message. The mechanic where my brother live had the correct parts in his kit. He had been on vacation. Thanks to everyone.
