Damn! UGH! I thought it was only the 200 series nonturbo diesel versions that do that.
I`ll need to address my worn ps bushings again for the 740 before this happens.
Any idea why exactly it happened, or how?
I have my pulley&belt clearly misaligned... and bc the belt does like to run pretty tight, I bet there is pressure on the entire bracket.
I have the bushings arriving tomorrow as part of a bigger order, I recall this project being very annoying due to the fact that we need to be careful with that lower lip of the bracket, they look thin around each hole. And the bushings and washers line up in a weird configuration, or at least they do on mine. I`ll need to do this soon to avoid needing a `new` bracket as you did.
