I have exactly same issue here. New rebuilt compressor has a taller clutch. I just installed it in my 1993/1994 convertible, using original bracket. Alignment is a bit off and even though belt runs ok, it squeaks a bit. Looking at Saab EPC numbers, there are different parts codes for different years:
1991-1993: compressor bracket "41 18 774", clutch "40 73 227", whole compressor "40 71 718"
1988-1989: compressor bracket "75 49 439", clutch "94 81 037", whole compressor "94 81 979"
1986-1987: compressor bracket "93 65 834", whole compressor "94 81 979", NLS, substituted with 1988-89 part
And yet all remanufactured compressor suppliers list same compressor for 1986-1993 model years! Wonder how this can be?!?
Does anyone have experience if this misalignment is really anything to be concerned of? Is the right way to adapt the rebuilt compressor to my 1993/1994 convertible to purchase an older compressor mount from a 1988-1989 car?
