Hey guys,



Thanks for all of the responses. I came up with a low cost (well, zero cost

since I had all of the materials) solution that only took an hour or so to

finish.



Basically, what I did was flip Van's alternator bracket around and fabricat=

e

a new bolt mount from some angle stock.



I put together the procedures on my web site for reference.

 Scott:



 I just took another look at your picture.  I thought you were

 referring to the

 gap and not the misalignment.   It looks like your ring gear is

 pushed all the way on and sets inside of the alt pulley.  I just

 looked at mine.

 Your 60 amp alt looks a bit different than mine and protrudes further

 forward from

 the mounting boss.  You might want to give Vans a call.



 Sorry

It is something your mail system is adding.  The  message that I sent 

has no "3D" in it when I received it.  Your answer to my mail message 

has the "3D" inserted again.
