bighands 0 Posted January 21, 2004 right, another bit has broken on my baby, its hard 2 explain but its like a peice of steel that holds the altenator on, the top bracket it looks like, that you adjust it through when i replaced it about 4 months ago, i may of over tightened it, or the nut n bolt holding the bloody thinh has snapped off, a right bitch beacuse there is a piece of nut stuck in the altenator still, gotta think about that one! mole grips or something needed! but once i have got it out, i need 2 know where 2 get a new piece of metal it seems 2 still be holding up, but i know when i need it most soon, its gunna give up on me! anyone know the part No or what the hell its called???? cheers lads! oh and ladesses!

h100vw 0 Posted January 21, 2004 Is it the bit with the teeth on and a 21ishmm hex that you use to adjust the belt tension? Or is it the bit that is bolted to the head? Can you read teh part number off it?? I might be able to help you with the bit on the head. I have a KR motor in the garage. Gavin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henny 0 Posted January 21, 2004 i have tried sending it fella, but got 1 back, ur e mail is full up! not enough room! Got it... It's part 17 on the description... you'll need part 15 and the bolts (16)... I'll get the part numbers in a bit for you and add 'em on here... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bighands 0 Posted January 21, 2004 oh good work fella! 8) so how come it looked nothing like that before? where am i gunna get all the bits? that pic of urs looks so diffrent! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted January 22, 2004 OK, the bit that you sent me the pic for is part 17 on the diagram I posted. That diagram is a bit confusing 'cos it's from the parts catalogue and so it shows all of the variations of parts... :? The part (15) you need bolts onto the head and goes over the lug you mentioned. The part you have then attaches to it with another bolt to hold it onto the head securely... 8) I'll see if I can find a better pic for you... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
