I have a question about the alternator bracket that bolts directley on the water pump...the one on the water pump.
What was the reason for the rubber isolator on the bracket (alternator bracket at water pump).
Was it to remove stress from the water pump mounting ear ?
Or was it to just dampen any vibrations for the engine assy
In my custom setup, I have removed the isolator..but am worried that it was to asorb vibration from the water pump mount ear, to prevent breakage.
Has anyone run thier alternator with out using the lower isolator....did you have any problems ?
Please let me know what you think....sure don't want to break the mount ear.:shrug:
