Brandy Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 I'm after a twin 2 1/2 inch O/D pulley to fit a CAV taper shaft alternator. I've searched the interweb without success. I think I know the answer but anyone know where or if pulleys can be purchased for CAV alternators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianh Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 A Nissan Navaro engine is fitted with a twin vee belt pulley on a high output alternator, I don't know what type of shaft this is, you would have to look at the alternator details. You will need to specify the belt type and centres as well as the pulley diameter if you are trying to buy or have one made to match an existing setup. I have just adapted a twin SPZ 50mm pulley for a customer to fit a 150 amp Barrus Alternator, this had a parallel shaft so was not to difficult a mod. The pulley came from Transmission Developments in Poole. The Lister engine had a 350mm dia pulley added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was a modern alternator which have parallel shafts then buying a new pulley would be no problem. Unfortunately it seems replacement pulleys of any description to fit the taper cav shaft are no longer available to purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have to keep a look out for a used one or look at machining one up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianh Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 If you are totally stuck I have all the equipment to make one but would need the alternator and existing drive/belts to match up correctly. PM me if you still need help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Nibble Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Try military buffs. The alternator fitted to the old FFR land rover will have the pulley you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
