Default Re: My "new" 260 inch Merc is a BEAST!

Passenger side. Alternator is a 90 Amp Nippondenso from a John Deere skid steer loader. The idler is also Deere that I turned down to 1.5" diameter and mounted to the RH leg of the Speedway alternator bracket. It mounts on a single 3/8 stud and rotates on two #203 bearings. Just clears the distributor!
