Crap. So, I put it all back together with a couple of shims on the lower alternator brackets and got it as close as I could. Also, cleaned up, painted, and reinstalled the coil bracket I made to hang off the spare holes in the A\/C compressor. I am now right about where I was 3 days ago, except for a few more wires trimmed up and the coil bracket finished up. And some people think I should work on cars for a living &#8211; LOL!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mister4x4.net\/mister4x4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_20230221_155914340_HDR-rotated.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mister4x4.net\/mister4x4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_20230221_155914340_HDR-rotated.jpg?w=768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mister4x4.net\/mister4x4\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_20230221_155914340_HDR-rotated.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Didn&#8217;t like the way the A\/C &#8211; alternator belt lined up after yesterday&#8217;s effort, so I pulled it all apart, hoping to somehow adjust the A\/C bracket and use 3-belts&#8230; but, Nope.
