make a custom mount, or if you are a sick drifter take the sway bar out!

im doing the exact same conversion and i didnt hav any troubles at all. are u using a ke70 cross member or a 86 or 71 cross member, cause u need a 71 or 86 cross member, just if u didnt no

[Wally332]

86 cross member.
cbf making my own mounts.
i think its time for the 7" grinder

[Wally332]

is the sway bar that important? or can i move the alternator where the aircon in and get rid of the air con?

[Eddy]

i think you might want the swaybar, just think people upgrade them to thicker ones for handeling, must do something, second idea is good but i dont think the altenator will just bolt up to the aircon mounts and have the right spaceing for the belt, engine conversions mean custom.

[Wally332]

if i cant fix this by tonite im ripping it out and turboing it

[shift_rook]

you'll need to custom mount it, swaybars are needed, however stock ones work completely fine, anyone who puts thiccker front AND rear swaybars obviously doesn't know what a swaybar does, and yeah turbosare fun fun fun

AW11 4agze alternator mount, it bolts the alternator up higher. You will need an N/A 4age alternator though, not that hard to find.

Otherwise make a custom bracket. On my 86, I ground the alternator cast a little as I retained the A/C compressor for use. If your alternator pulley does not rub on the sway bar, maybe just grind the rib of the alternator that is rubbing on it.

i still have that too ^^^ :P

[Wally332]

i ripped the ac off moved the alternator up to where the ac was bought a smaller belt and made a custom bottom mount sticks out but its not hitting nething

[Sam-Q]

[Wally332]
