Went tonight to install the 28VDC 60 Amp alternator and the belts... Not happening. The belts aren't aligning up with all three pulleys (Main crank, water pump and alternator). Appears the the water pump and main crank pulleys are perfect. The problem exists with the alternator pulley. It's like the individual belt v grooves aren't aligning. The spacing is all wrong.
When I bought the truck, the belts seems likr they weren't aligning correctly and squealed like a mashed cat.
Is it possible that my alternator is from a different application???? Maybe incorrect pulley is attached to it?
Belt closest to the fan blade seems to be aligned to track perfectly. Other 2 belts... not so much.
Anyone seen this before?
Advice greatly appreciated. - Dave
