While tracking this weekend, my lower alternator bolt backed out. This led to the upper bolt cracking under the added stress. No big deal, I used an Easy Out to remove what was left.

My question is, the extra "washer" in the pic below, was this part of the casting on the alternator? I'm just unsure where this piece came from.

If someone has an alternator laying around would they be kind enough to text me a picture of both sides of the lower mounting points? 61O-476-O879

Thanks in advance for any pics or advice.

Pic sent. The washer is pressed into the alternator from the factory.

 

Thanks Bill.

For future reference ......
