What it amounts to is that there are two bolts that need to be loosened in order to adjust and tightened in order to hold it in place. One is the bolt associated with the threaded rod and the other is the bolt at the pivot point.

ok.. apparently some customization did occure. Just the concept was kept simular.
my threaded rod is WELDED to the edge of a bolt head. Looks nicely machined to me. Maybe I'm looking at it wrong it is so hard to see in there. Anyway... I think I got it tight now. Gawd I hope the PO put in a high output alternator so I dont have too try to pull this one out to do it myself.
