What is your question?
My AC compressor on my 2010 Ford Focus SE has completely seized. Repair estimate to replace compressor, belt, receiver-drier (due to debris in system) is $1100-1500, which isn't really in the budget right now. The compressor can be bypassed with a shorter belt though, correct? Anyone know what size belt would be needed? Also, is a bypass pulley an option, as well? I've seen it for other vehicles, but haven't for a Focus before.

There is not an A/C bypass pulley listed for your Focus. to determine the length of the shorter belt you would need remove your belt and then measure around all the pulleys except the A/C pulley with a tailors tape to get the length of the new shorter belt.I don't know who gave you that price,but these A/C people seem to get real hungry when HOT weather gets here! If you can find someone at a trusted,local,independent A/C repair shop or even better to have a friend to help you do this job,you can buy the A/C Compressor & Component Kit with >A/C Compressor] w/ Clutch>A/C Receiver Drier / Accumulator] Filter Drier>and the A/C Expansion Valve for around $320.00. check out Rockauto.com,they only charge a very small shipping fee(bout $15.00 for this kit) and no sales tax! This exact same kit,made by the same exact mfg.( 4Seasons) is $530.00 at Autozone!
