saturn alternator issues

[brian102]

Im having some issues installing my saturn alternator. The adjusting bracket wont line up. I leave it stock it hits alternator fan i flip it upside down i cant tighten the bolt on the bracket down. Things just arent lining up.

Yep. Thats how it is. You have to tighten it with only the adjuster bolt and bottom bolts.

But i shouldnt have to flip the bracket arm from what ive seen?

 

[97gst_spyder]

If your talking about the metal block that the alt attaches to with the adjustment bolt then yes. It will really only fit one way.

On a side note TurboGlenn is making Saturn alt brackets soon. So look for that soon.

 

[brian102]

So i need to flip block and thats it. I thought fan hit arm that way

 

[97gst_spyder]

It will only work one way. So whatever way it works is the correct way.

 

[brian102]

Ok ill try again

I'd throw some loctite on the adjuster bolt to make sure it doesn't loosen on you.
