toothed alternator adjuster?

[Pablo M]

Like on the e21 and e30's. Is it possible?

 

Mine:  1972 2002tii

TII, important as the alternator is further down than on a standard one. 

 

I saw a video where someone here had made a custom toothed adjuster, like on the later cars.

Like this:

 

 

In doing research I came across several posts, like this one:

 

 

Gives part numbers for the e30 parts to use. 

 

I'd love to do this. Does anyone have any info on this? Has anyone done it on a TII? If so can you provide any further info? I have the bracket and nut in my shopping cart lol. 

 

Thanks!

Thats who the guy in the video mentioned. I couldnt quite make out what he said. 
Thanks. 
But does that mean the e30 parts, or e21 parts dont work?

I have one, I bought it from one of the guys on here who makes them, there’s defo an article about them on the faq somewhere, try searching for Tii alternator adjuster or something similar, it’s great you just turn the bolt and the adjuster “walks” up the arm just like the e30 one I believe

The e30 parts aren't cheap, even on eBay. They also need a little tweaking if I recall to fit a tii. Themis' custom parts work just the way they are for a tii.

My search results didn’t bring that up. Didn’t use the term ‘adjuster’

thanks. I messaged him last night and now left post in that thread. Appreciate it.

funny- all the E30 ones I come across are stripped out...

t

uses a big screwdriver, or, 'where did I leave Blue?'

I uses a rope and a stick

I've got the Themis Bracket on both my tii cars and they are working great. Quality made part.

Well, they're also all original, so they lasted 38 years. I think that's ok. We replaced the one in my sons 86 e30 3 years ago and it's been great since.

Saw that. Not sure I can do that given mine is under the mechanical fuel pump since mine is a tii. But this is also not what I was asking. Thanks though.

Good to hear. I reached out to him but haven't heard back. Not sure he's still making them. His post hasnt been updated since 2021.
