help with a 82 scrambler engine.

[RenegadeCustoms]

i have an 82 scrambler with a jasper rebuilt 4.2l when i got the motor it was just the block. i have ordered all the parts and put them on the block but i am having an issue with the alternator bracket and wether or not it has a clutch fan or just a fan that bolts to the water pump. any help would be tremendous. thanks again

It looks like your engine has a standard non -heavy duty fan so no clutch just bolted direct to water pump.
Is the problem belts no aligning? There is different height water pumps and pulpy set ups.
Here’s a pic of mine

Yeah I’ll take a picture of the alignment but it’s off by about 1/2 an inch and thanks a bunch that pic helps out a lot

There are different water pump heights and different height pulled for water pump and power steering
I had to use a water pump for a 1979 to make my water pump pulley work

Here is a breakdown of brackets and pulleys depending on your current set up:



Maybe you can cross reference your part numbers to the factory to compare.
