Alternator pulley
Is the alternator pulley supposed to be on the same plane as the power steering? Trying to piece the pulley back together and I'm not sure what order the parts go in. If someone has some pics that would help.

IIRC the alternator and water pump are driven from the same belt, and the power steering pump is separate. It appears the color is off in your photo. <gr>

Nope, they're different belts. Look at your pic and the difference in the width where the belt rides. IRC Alt is 13MM and P/S is 10MM.

Still looks as though the alt has to move in a bit more...
