Long Alternator and Power Steering Drive for LS Engine Swaps
Deeper engine mounts in many LS swaps introduce pulley alignment headaches that the Alternator and Power Steering Drive - Long bracket resolves by repositioning alternator and pump pulleys back to factory GM mounting points. Maintaining precise belt alignment under all conditions prevents glazing and slippage at higher engine speeds. Crafted from US billet aluminum and hardened steel alloys the bracket resists corrosion and retains its shape under heat soak and engine vibration. Installers will appreciate the direct fit for medium and long balancer setups on GM trucks and vans plus the included grade 8 fasteners and illustrated guide that remove setup guesswork.
Precision CNC Machining for Flawless Pulley Alignment
This bracket is crafted using CNC machining to tolerances of just a few thousandths of an inch, placing alternator and power steering pump pulleys exactly at GM specified mounting points. Such precision eliminates common belt tracking problems like glazing and slippage at elevated engine speeds by maintaining even tension across the entire belt path. Installers benefit from one-time setup accuracy, as the bracket removes the need for repeated shimming or adjustment trials. Consistent pulley geometry also supports smooth accessory drive operation from idle through high rpm, preventing premature belt wear and reducing maintenance intervals.
Premium Aluminum and Hardened Steel Alloy Construction
Key components of the bracket are milled from US billet aluminum, offering a lightweight solution that withstands heat soak in tight engine bays without warping. Mounting surfaces and support points are reinforced with hardened steel alloy to retain structural integrity under constant vibration and torque loads. A corrosion-resistant surface treatment further protects against moisture, road salts, and chemical exposure, preserving precise bracket shape over years of service. By combining these materials, the assembly delivers both low weight and high rigidity, ensuring the accessory drive remains stable under all operating conditions.
Versatile Balancer Accommodation for Medium and Extended Setbacks
Designed to fit both medium and extended crank balancer spacings, this bracket adapts to deeper engine mounts or modified frames without extra adapters. Compatibility spans a broad range of GM two wheel drive trucks and vans, allowing builders to standardize on a single drive solution across multiple vehicle models. This versatility reduces parts inventory and simplifies swap planning, as the same bracket restores factory-level belt line geometry regardless of setback length. The ability to support different offset requirements ensures smooth integration with custom motor mounts and frame modifications.
Complete Grade 8 Hardware Pack and Illustrated Installation Guide
The package includes a full set of grade eight fasteners, selected for optimal thread engagement and resistance to shear under constant vibration. Every bolt, washer, and spacer aligns with the bracket's geometry and load needs, eliminating the need for installers to source extra parts. A detailed illustrated guide walks technicians through each stage of installation, from torque specifications to belt routing diagrams. Even those new to LS swaps can achieve a precise, error-free setup in one session, saving hours of guesswork and reducing the risk of installation-related issues.
This bracket ensures precise belt alignment and lasting durability for your LS engine swap.
