New Bosch alternator doesn't have notched drive shaft (photos)
The new Bosch AL-117X 65 amp alternator came in. I took off the pulley bolt and noticed the shaft does not have a notch to fit the original keyed fan and pulleys.
As a trial, I placed the notched fan and pulley on the new alternator then turned the pulley. It appears to drive the alternator but I don't like the idea of the shaft not having a notch to fit the fan/pulley. I need to put this car back on the road today, any ideas are appreciated.
