Title: Alternator mount
Post by: Stangman on March 19, 2024, 07:24:24 PM

I have the upper mount alternator brackets. Would like to put it lower. I’m on Long Island does anybody have a lower mounting brackets for sale. Or maybe bring them to the beaver we’re i can buy them from someone.

If you have a high mount you can rotate the alternator 180* and then use
a factory style adjuster arm or make an adjuster arm. Which is what I did.
The actual low mount bracket is also used to mount the air pump so it has
a lug that sticks up and does not look good.

This what a 67 390 low mount alternator looks like.
This one belongs to my Fairlane. I hope some day it is actually in the car.

I bought one of these for my mustang and really like it. Came powder coated and with the hardware.
