I just installed a new Bosch 120 amp with the clutch pulley, not alot of room in a MK1 caddy

You have to remove the entire alt bracket since the thru bolts ( mounts for alt)are close to the body.

I purchased some M8 x 90 mm s/s bolts to fight the corrosion.

I have a lift and ran the belt around the lower , asked for some help on holding the arm up while routing the belt around the pulley.
