Is it possible to use one of these on our trucks, more specifically on an LBZ? Any done it / have it? Looking at this as an alternative to mounting a large compressor somewhere.

"Dimensions are 5.5" in diameter, 8.5" long with eight mounting ears. A serpentine belt style clutch is preinstalled on the unit."

Assume the pulley would need to be changed, I havn't measured where the second alt mounts for the 8.5" depth.
If it fits (depth) I think you should be able to fab brackets from the 2nd alt ears to the compressor.
