Re: 72 2wd conversion
I had to change the water pump to a car style and install spacers (.75) to bring the water pump pulley out to match the truck harmonic balancer and alternator / power steering pump bracket. Then I discovered that I had to buy a tensioner pulley because the truck pulley doesn't work on the car water pump. Then I also had to relocate the idler pullet to make it work right. After that I measured the belt I needed and ordered it.
Seemed like at this point I was heading down a path in which I would have to keep jumping self induced hurdles.
What began as a driver project was turning into much more.
