I'm hoping someone with a Bobcat T320 can help me out. My lower A/C compressor mounting bolt backed out, and shortly after that the upper adjustment/tension bolt also backed out, so the A/C compressor ended up completely loose and was rattling around. I reinstalled both bolts and secured the compressor back to the bracket, but now I'm running into a pulley alignment issue. The A/C compressor pulley no longer lines up with what I believe is the outer groove on the crankshaft pulley. Instead, the outer groove on the A/C compressor lines up with the inner groove on the crankshaft pulley. From what I can tell, the inner groove on the crankshaft drives the water pump and alternator, while the outer groove appears to be dedicated to the A/C compressor. Is the A/C compressor driven by its own separate belt, or is it part of one continuous belt that also drives the water pump and alternator? Does anyone happen to have a belt routing diagram for a Bobcat T320 (serial A7MP40074), or has anyone run into this issue before after the compressor came loose? I'm trying to determine whether I'm missing a spacer, have the wrong bracket, or if I'm routing the belt incorrectly. Any pictures, diagrams, or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
