This document is an exploded parts diagram showing the air conditioning compressor and clutch assembly mounting on a V8 engine, uploaded as applicable to a 1978 Ford Bronco with a 400 CID engine. The line drawing depicts the front of the engine with valve cover, water pump pulley, and crankshaft pulley visible, and shows how the A/C compressor and its mounting hardware fit together. Labeled components include the compressor assembly (2875), compressor clutch assembly (2961), magnetic clutch field coil (2987), idler pulley assembly (8A617), brace assembly (2A964), mounting bracket (19D624), and a retaining clip (374372-S32). Fastener callouts identify multiple screws (381649-S2, 370608-S2, 378859-S36, 384387-S2), a bolt (37841-S2), and a washer (358605-S2), with leader lines indicating each fastener's location on the compressor, bracket, brace, and idler pulley. A reader can use this diagram to identify Ford basic part numbers and hardware part numbers needed to remove, replace, or reassemble the A/C compressor mounting system, and to see the correct assembly order and positions of the bracket, brace, clutch, and pulleys relative to the engine. No torque specifications, year designations, or model text appear on the diagram itself.
