No I cannot. I don't have any access to those items until we reopen on Monday.

Thanks. Can I just order the 3 bolts and required spacers? They were not included in my kit so I reused the stock bolts hence the misalignment vs. the other pulleys.

I never got a response to my phone message or emails so I made some shims myself yesterday. It is close but still ~1/8" off. I cannot shim the York bracket further without disrupting the alternator bracket since they share a common bolt through the water pump. Any suggestions?

Also, the Gates belt (K061031) you recommended is incorrect. Do you know what belt is correct for this system?

I second this. I have most pieces to add to my 69 AMX, but missing the P/S pulley, and I have the lower alternator bracket. Please let me know what parts I need to complete, and a routing for the belt.

I have:
Alternator Pulley
Lower Alternator Bracket
Crank Pulley
Water Pump Pulley

Need
Power Steering Pulley?
Idler?
Tension arm?

Help please, new to this forum, but not AMC

I just bought this kit from a freind of mine that passed away. I am putting it on a 73 401 with PS and A/C (York). I am having a really hard time getting everything to line up.
1) Are there different crank pulleys? My crank pulley sticks out, the most, BY FAR. They were is probably a good inch to an inch and a half difference between my crank and the A/C compressor.
2) I can get the crank and water pump to line up with about 1/2" worth of spacers. Is this normal?
3) How do I adjust the power steering pump in and out?

First you need to know what you have. The Crankshaft harmonic balancer must be pressed in all the way first. That will set all the other pulleys. If you water pump is off .4375 or 7/16" inch then you have the wrong year water pump or your kit was ordered with the wrong pulley (We make both styles). Next the AC pump should have spacers to bring it out so the pulley lines up with the crank.
