My '70 had dealer installed air, but the compressor is gone, and I'm not going to re-install....I am going to put the alternator back where it belongs, so it runs in the correct direction...I've ordered the bracket , belt, and adjuster....
Can someone post a photo showing the way the alternator and bracket are mounted?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Barry,

My car had a/c (assume factory but don't know for sure) so this may not be helpful. But here is a shot of the alternator.



The JCNA Series II judging book may have the details you need and if you look for cars of your vintage on XKEdata.com you may find some good photo references.

Good luck! Hope you're feeling better.

That's what I have now...The alternator is running backwards...(which works either way), but so is the alternator fan, so it is not cooling itself as efficiently as it could...
It also looks a little odd that way.
I have one photo of the correct orientation, but I was hoping to get some close ups of the bracket and adjuster rod....
Thank you for supplying the photo.

Hi Edward,
Here are a couple of pictures that may help. I can post pictures of the bracket when the alternator comes off shortly.

Regards,

Bill

 

Thank you...That's just what I was looking for.
