You need the metal plate behind the alternator
which is different to the old generator type...
If You have ALL the doghouse shroud tinware
maybe its just a shim problem....

My Son [and I] both had to shim the pulleys on Our alternators....

I just happened to have some flat washers which fitted perfectly...

I see on some US websites for sale, special shims made for
the alternator and flywheel pulleys...

Best of luck
