I think your right Jim if I had a spare alternator id check that out as for the offer of one that would be very nice of you, ive somebody who is looking for me at present but if that proved unsuccessful ill take you up on that offer thank you personally id like to keep the non xr2 tie bars to keep things even since the longer xr2 tie bar moves the fulcrum forwards and moves the bar through a slightly different arc, I know its not much but im rather fussy im sure I could adapt the alternator to sit slightly higher and pivot further forwards and use a longer belt
