Subject:What's the difference between these two AC brackets?
From:BenT Syncro

Hello Folks,

I recently came into possession of pair of AC brackets. I believe they are
both from Wasserboxers.
The mounting holes land in the same spot. However, the bracket design is
different enough to work
up my curiosity. Can anyone tell me why one bracket is different from the
other?  Is one from an
earlier year? Note that smaller looking one is much heavier with thicker
walls at the flat section. The
compressor saddle is supported in the larger looking one. Besides that, the
bosses for the compressor
is heftier and takes a different size bolt for the smaller one. I'm almost
inclined to guess 1.9 WBX bracket?
