Other than the pulley, did the alternator and bracket fit / line up ok or was there a problem with that too? I'm in bad need of a decent alternator on my 60! The LED bulbs helped greatly at night (no voltage change when they're turned on or on high beam), but that occasional discharge flicker on the Sniper screen lets me know I need more charging power......Piddling around this am, I decided to toss on my Quality Power one wire 140 amp alternator this am. It came with a supplied “J” bracket to fit over the OEM mount. Simple, right? Just one wire from the alternator to the battery. Seems legit.
I loosely fitted the brackets the way they are shown to go, as well as having ref’d the one install I’d seen here on mud.
it came with some extra flat washers to shim it with, and when I referenced the other install again, didn’t look like it used any.
I knew immediately that it wasn’t lining up, but I tightened it down anyway to get a reference as to how much I would need to shim it.Looks like 1”. Ooof. Gonna have to revisit that.
I then noticed that the belt didn’t fit in the pulley groove at all. It would probably work, but I don’t roll like that. So, I’ll have to revisit that as well.
so. I punted on that project like some bad carnitas and slapped the OE one back on.

See other member’s install below here. Pulley is different

The pulley from your old alternator wouldn't fit the new one, correct?
