How does the A/C compressor mount on a 2002 TJ 4.0?

[930carson]

I am returning AC to a 2002 4.0 sport that the previous owner removed. I can't seem to find any reference to how the compressor mounts to the block on the lower driver's side. Is there a bracket?

The compressor mounts to the passenger side, above the alternator.

Thanks Tworley my lines run across the block down to the driver's side - My 98 sport looked like that picture

Ah...interesting. I thought the compressor was on the other side starting in 03. Learn something new everyday.

Check this from wermopar.com, it shows what you need towards the bottom of the page. A long bolt, an L bracket that mounts to the block, and another bracket that bolts to the block near the coolant plug

There are a few different mount styles, I have a brand new compressor that I could sell you for a discount if it ends up being the style that you need. I bought it from rock auto, then realized it was the wrong style after the return window closed:
