I rebuilt my bleeding p/s pump today and my pulleys are all way outta whack! The ac doesnt line up with the p/s and the alt doesnt line up with anything! I want all new brackets and mounts from Santa Claus! It sounds like I've got a herd of mice under my hood.

exactly why are the pulleys out of alignment? Are the pulleys of the same setup? Jeg's has some special water pump spacers that will allow you to move the pulley in and out a touch, but if you have problems other then that you are kinda in a bad spot. Moroso makes the spacers by the way if you are interested.
Which way is it off? First question would be did you get the pulley pressed all the way back on. Second would be make sure the brackets are all on right and not crossed up. I assume everything w/ the shaft was ok and that is on correctly. If it is just a matter of getting things lined up and the pulley is pressed on all the way and is a bit too deep... then you can pull it out an 1/8th of an inch or so. After youthink it is lined up rev the motor up to 50 grand a few times... as higher rpm is where it is gonna fly off if it is crooked
The p/s pulley is on all the way. I think what it is is just old brackets that have had their day. Either they've been dropped and dinged, heat stress. I dunno. I think if I had a handful of washers I could fix it but I don't have that kind of patience. I think one by one little by little I'm going to change the hardware. I'll start with the alt first. It's most cockeyed. It's been that way since I replaced my motor 4 years ago.
