Unfortunately my company blocks pictures so I can't see what you posted but I will look tonight when I get home. Hopefully someone can figure out before then. Good luck.

Looks like wrong alt bracket for the single fan pulley.

Likely solve with different alt brack or a double fan pulley

The bracket came from inline tube.
I mounted it with a bolt & stud now I'm thinking I need 2 studs with nuts for spacers.
I'm hoping that;ll bring it out to where I need it.

I got it yesterday.
What I had to do is make a longer stud 7/16" longer for the top hole out of some 3/8" unthreaded rod that I have.
Lines up good now.
