Anyone have the part numbers for each of the bolts in the alternator tensioner for a 1g 6-bolt? Specifically need the one for the bolt that actually screws into the alternator ear up top and has the smooth part on the end to go into the block that the tensioner (long) bolt goes through. I've found some of the part #s and added them below for reference. I cant find this part # anywhere and there seems to be several different variations of the alternator bracket designs.

Tensioner bolt (long one that moves the alternator) MD133180
Long bolt that goes through the bottom of alternator MD095695

Thanks
 
The bolt that threads into the ear of the alternator on top is MF140033 originally for a vehicle with manual transmission and MD147194 originally for vehicle with automatic transmission. The difference between the two is 2mm in length.

Realistically these days what with everyone swapping parts all over, it has more to do with the tensioner bracket style than the transmission. I think we all know what the normal bracket looks like, but just in case: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/cylinder-head-short-block/276707-project-rely-ability-6-bolt-rebuild-6.html#post151599861. Here are few links to pictures of the 1G automatic bracket: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/403003-please-identify-these.html#post152590592.
 
Thats not what mine looks like, essentially mine is opposite from that, the alternator ear fits inside the bracket and the tensioner bolt and sliding block are on the block side instead of the frame rail side. I was rather suprised when I didnt find a pic anywhere of my design even in part breakdowns on the mopar parts website. My engine did come from Japan though, was a JDM red top with cyclone intake and Auto trans. It may have even come from a Galant maybe since it had a very odd turbo outlet j-pipe on it when I got it.

I'll get pics of the bolt I need (my buggered up one) and my bracket design tonight and post them here.

Thanks!
 
What's not like yours?

I posted links to two different brackets. This sounds like what you're describing.

yep, the auto one is what I got, I need the bolt thats pointing down in that pic, its threaded up by the bolt head but smooth where it goes into the moving block. Both part numbers you gave seem to be the ones that are regular shanked bolts just 2mm difference in length.

Although I did seem to find a PDF with pretty much every part number and breakdown of every system in these cars in my search for this bolt.

Here's the link

... and the part number for the bolt pointing down in that pic of the automatic bracket is MD147194.

It's a nice PDF but, like anything else, it has its pros and cons. Specifically for this case, it doesn't call out auto or manual for that bolt. Mitsubishi ASA, on the other hand, does. Take it for what it's worth.
 
yeah thats the part number im coming up with also, just cant seem to find a valid pic of it LOL, or for that matter where I could possibly buy one. I'll just make one myself instead most likely since it will be less work than locating one LOL.

Thanks for the help!
