Default A/C, Fan, Alternator - The three R's

I plan on removing the entire a/c system (since it never worked), relocating the alternator to where the compressor was & replacing the mechanical fan with another e-fan. Does anyone have a write up for all three? it would be much easier to do all at once.

Its the same fan motor. But it had an awesome relay pack for the fan controller , and all the connectors wit more than enough wire.

The fan is also removable from the entire shroud so u was able to adapt the fan to the stock xj shroud

Does anyone know if the alternator will fit the compressor bracket (with any modification) or will I just need to fab something?

I can get you relocated alternator and efan and keep the AC. Are you looking to eliminate the AC for a reason or just assume that's where the alt has to go?

Yes I want to delete all the a/c components. It never worked and getting rid of it will free up space for future mods. Your write-ups are excellent. I hope I can some of the info in my project Thanks!

No need for OBA. Already have a compressor. Besides, it's shot.
