Title: stock alternator bracket
Post by: brocksl on June 20, 2012, 00:05:11

Frigiking unit now out of the car....wow, that bracket (for compressor & alternator) is huge.  Any ideas on where to find a stock (35 amp) bracket??  Do I need to change pulleys?  Will the crankshaft pulley to power steering pump remain as a direct v belt set-up?  What is the v belt set up with the alternator in it's stock lower RH position.  What v belt is recommended?  Thanks

Hello Brock,

New bracket for alternator necessary, see attached.
AFAIK available only used. Ask K&K, Bud's, Dan Caron, Gernold Nisius, SLS and the common usual sources.

Pulleys for crank and alternator should remain the same. Certainly you'll need a new V-belt for the alternator. Don't know exactly what size.

I'm near Athens, GA 15 min south by High Shoals, I drove out to Bud's and pulled the pulleys off a parts car when I took the Kuehl Meister out of my 230sl. I recall the belt size 9,5x935mm as the alternator belt for non A/C cars.
