1979 FJ40 2F Alternator Bracket Adjustment

[Bruce Miles]

12/79 FJ40 w/ 2F. Took alternator bracket apart, & cannot remember how tensioner arm/bolt goes together. Not sure where washers or spacer(?) goes. Could someone send a detailed photo of it correctly assembled?

Here’s a picture of my 5/79. I think @ToyotaMatt sells a new threaded hardware kit just in case you think it’s time to replace yours.

That's correct. Here's what I pieced together for the alternator brackets, just order direct from your preferred toyota dealer.

He uses oem Toyota stuff but he uses a different collection of hardware - I chose to piece my own together as I had a different vision of what I wanted it to look like.
