Belt rubbing water pump

Also, what's the difference in mounting hardware for the alternator?

I don't know if all the pulleys are the "proper" diameter/depth - they all look matched to each other, at least, but I'll have to double check that too. I don't think the water pump is the issue as it didn't rub when the alt belt was tight enough. Just that it had already worn that belt, plus the alt is really loose in its pivot so it's misaligned when tight.


The alternator brackets are the same for A/C or non-A/C.


There wasn't a different water pump. I was just making fun of the wording in the title for a "belt rubbing water pump" as opposed to a "non-belt rubbing water pump".... Just a joke for the word play...

If you notice on our crank pulley, the diameter is smaller than the groove for the P/S belt. I can measure if if you need me to.
