I want to install the alternator where the AC compressor would normaly be.
Can I run the alternator like this in a fox ? VVVVV I am trying to gather some info.




I have been searching for hours and cant find good info on moving the alternator there like a crown vic or grand marquis.

Any help is apreciated

I am sure you can swap the bracket from the Vic to the stang ofcourse the AC would have to go away. anyway way would you do that?

Yeah swap brackets, but I question the belt routing if there water pump is different.

FWIW, the '90 Town Car I had with a 5.0 had TWO belts on it, so I wouldn't count on things lining up right with the alternator mounted up with a Panther bracket. Can't remember right off hand if the water pump was standard- or reverse-rotation, though...

Town cars have the alternator ont he pass side just like mustangs so those are not relevant here.
