Honda Car Forum

Okay, here goes. I've got an 87 Accord. Shortly after I bought this
wonderful car, I took a trip to Colorado from Lost Wages. Somewhere
around Beaver Utah my AC give out because the bolts came loose and the
unit fell down a gainst the radiator. Well, the bolts that hold the
compressor on went bye bye. the brackets are still there, but that
j-bolt adjuster bolt has become hard to find.
The local pick-a-parts are out, the bigger bone yards aren't
interested in helping me, the dealer wants to sell me a new car, the
parts houses should be outsourced to Mongolia, and I'm about at my
wits end. It has been a pretty hot summer here in sin city. I'm sure
someone can line me out with this deal. I'm not looking for a freebie,
just the bolts.
TIA

Bullshit.

Parts and service are the big profit centers for the dealers. You're
trying to tell us that the dealer won't sell you a part?

Bullshit.

slhonda.com has all the parts, plus exploded diagrams to help you
identify the part. Click on the picture of the part, and order it.

www.cheapesthondaparts.com If it doesn't show up in their on line list,
email them, they will get back to you ... they are located in Colorado, as a
matter of fact. They shipped necessary parts to me here in TX, no problem.
Good luck!

try a new dealer. or someone will post a link to a friendly online
dealer... majestic honda, maybe?

last resort? the "help" parts section at autozone or wherever has a
bunch of hard to find stuff.

Yeah Majestic Honda looks good. I think they have the part, but I'll
call 'em during the week and confirm.
Thanks
