can you modify one from another model or make your own bracket?

pm TRDragoon (Itchy), he might be able to help you.


i'm assuming that the corolla GT-S (AE92) would work coz the're basically the same chassis. but ask Itchy!

if its a 4alc then shouldnt one from another AE82 4alc work like from a sedan?

I would just keep looking in junk yards, isn't there a good nation wide salvage part web site anyone knows of? I had to take my bracket apart to replace the head gasket and now it seems there is a part missing. Is there a spacer that keeps the pulley from hitting the bracket? Any help would be most appreciative.

Sorry my bad.......but seriously, do you know if it has a spacer on the ac idler pulley?

Well, you asked a new question, so it's all good. If I remember right, there is a spacer thing. There's the cast iron bracket, the long tension screw, the threaded bolt the bearing is on and the tension screw threads into, a shouldered spacer that goes over the bolt, the idler bearing, a stamped sheet metal dust cap, and nut to hold on the idler.
