Re: alternator bracket

Update.
So I ended up having to make a bracket for the bottom pivot. My orginal bracket would not allow alternator pulley to line up with other pulleys.
So I made bracket. At first I made the stand offs little wide for alignment adjustment but didn't realize bracket would rub belt. I then go back and slot mounting holes for adjustment. I know will use spacer to fill gap alternator slot to standoffs. ( yes I could cut stand off and relocate but not going to)
Now we get tensioner bracket which wouldn't know hits alternator before slot can get to mounting bolt on alternator. So I used aluminum bracket to attach to alternator then tie that bracket orginal tensioner bracket.
Mock up yesterday. Now just go threw get a true good alignment of pulleys and run my wire.

I never would thought 1 hour job I could stretch to 8 hours. I have feeling restoring this truck will take awhile. Between balance work ot and house re model and family time. It's hard.
