Default AC bypass pulley?

Anyone have a part number or is this even possible with the old renix 4.0 setup? And where did you get it if you have it?

Napa sells them for the newer Jeeps. Not too sure if it the same for the older models.

It's possible, they came from the factory in base model XJs without AC. Problem is I don't think anyone makes the renix ones anymore. Your only chance would be finding a used one on Ebay or at a junkyard. My current 89 XJ has the delete pulley but once I get some money I wanna put an AC compressor in.

Im pretty sure you can use the belt from a 4.0 yj without ac obviously and not have to worry about a pulley

I'm pretty sure it needs a pulley there for proper belt routing.
