A/C Compressor - Behr/Bosch - Axial, want to get an old one

Post by master6 »

Fellow Forum Members,

I need an old, non working A/C Compressor, Behr/Bosch - Axial type.
Are you junking an e12 with one, got one in your garage?

Please send me a photo to verify its an AXIAL to

I will pay via PayPal, and include shipping.

Are you just looking for the compressor, or the complete setup including the mount to the block? Most people got rid of that setup because the bushings in the mount aren’t replaceable and it’s easier to just get a later setup. I’m pretty sure I have at least one. Are you wanting one for free or are you a paying customer?

No bushings in the E12 setup with the axial, swashplate compressor, it's one piece of cast aluminum. Might you be thinking of the earlier E3 setup with that vile York, square compressor? Those were rubber mounted and noisy and rough with bushings that failed.

Thanks Mike,

I looked on Realoem, E12 and did not bushings either.

Best,
