alternator adjustment arm

[car_cursed]

Mine is cracked as tends to happen, please let me know if you have one.

Looks like a weld candidate if you don't find a good used one?

Last summer mine snapped. Had a friend weld it up. Some are flat, some have an S curve in them. Good as new !

Yeah, they're slightly different.
I'd advise to remove your broken one and measure it. Take a few more pictures, and then someone can determine if they have a close match.
One year, I needed a replacement and bought 3 or 4 before finding one that matched perfectly. As redroadster68 asked, is it flat or does it have a bend? Also, how long is the one you have now? The curve makes a difference too, as some might hit the alternator body if it's not a match. Maybe lay it flat next to a ruler which shows the length and approximate curvature.

I would suggest welding it up too. At least then you know it won't crack there again!

He needed to grind a V to the middle ,weld fill it then do the same on the back to have it stong

Thanks for the feedback. It is flat, and about 7.5" in length. I lack welding skills, need to learn but can probably ask a neighbor.

Alternatively has anyone tried one of these?

Those will work for sure, but they have to be in-line, so no joggle between bolted surface and alternator locking bolt.
When I went to GM 3-wire alt I had to change mine, and I think I wandered the Pick-A-Part until I found one similar. (OK, so the bend is wrong, so I REALLY have to struggle to get the belt on, so my advice is a bit dubious on this topic!)

If anyone wants the correct arm, we have them. New and also typically some good used ones..... fyi
