Hello!
Just thought I'd say hi and try my luck for some urgently needed advice!

I have a F registration 90 and I've recently discovered that my alternator bracket wasn't attached properly! In the process of fixing it it was found that the long bolt attaching it to the engine mount had sheered off! Its all gone a bit wrong and I'm really struggling as to what to do next!!!!

It bodged together but its only a matter of time before somethings gonna unsettle it all!
Would really appreciate some reassuring words of wisdom! My main problem is sourcing an alternator bracket! Any suggestions would be gratefully received or if you just fancy a gossip thats cool too!

Either way thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully I'll hear from someone soon!

Ey up LG. Ey up Slob. Go on Slob give her it.

Any how LG when you say the mounting bracket which one do yer mean the one with the slot in it for adjustment or the one that it pivots on thats part of the alternator. If its the fost one wich I reckon it must be, can't you get a nammer an ammer it back into shape?
