Jay Racing 1G DSM Alternator Relocation Kit

The Jay Racing 1G DSM alternator relocation kit allows you to relocate the alternator to the firewall side of the block. Includes the aluminum mounting bracket, belt, tensioning system and all hardware. You must remove air conditioning for this kit to fit.

Kits are available for use with the DSM alternator or the GM/Saturn alternator. Also you may choose the material for the main bracket as aluminum or heavy duty alloy steel.

The ARK1S-MS kit with steel main bracket for the GM/Saturn alternator is pictured. This kit weighed in at 2.215 pounds.

Vehicle Fitment:
1990-1994 Eclipse GST/GSX
1990-1994 Talon TSi
1990-1994 Laser RS
1991-1992 Galant VR-4

Install Notes:
• Retains use of factory water pump
• Runs off of either set of ribs on the crank pulley
• Eliminates the A/C compressor and will use its mounting location at the firewall side of the block

Jay Racing 1G DSM Alternator Relocation Kit Installation:

1. Remove intake manifold.

2. Remove air conditioning belt, tensioner, compressor and mounting bracket, if applicable.

3. Due to possible belt clearance issues, it is recommended to remove some material from the cast motor mount bracket. The area is surrounding the tapped hole. 1/16" deep is sufficient. This can be accomplished in 5 minutes with a hand file.

4. Install main alternator mounting bracket in between the block and the half shaft carrier utilizing factory 14mm head bolts. Note: the alternator case needs a good path to ground. This must be bare aluminum. It is recommended to grind or sand off the black anodize where the alternator contacts the main bracket and where the main alternator bracket contacts the engine block. Strategic use of split type lock washers will penetrate the anodizing and allow a good ground path as well.

5. Install tensioner assembly to tensioner mounting bracket utilizing supplied 25mm socket head cap screw using blue thread locker (Loctite), is recommended for this screw. If using the DSM alternator, use the upper hole as shown. If using the GM/Saturn alternator, use the lower threaded hole.

6. Bolt the tensioner bracket with the tensioner arm attached to the block. You will use one of the old A/C compressor bolt holes and bolts. Locate the top of the tensioner bracket on the cast boss as shown.

7. Bolt the alternator to the main alternator mounting bracket using the factory nut and bolt. Place the large diameter spacer on the driver's side of the bracket to use the outer pulley or the passenger's side of the bracket to use the inner pulley.

8. Bolt the other end of the tensioner arm to the alternator using the remaining
45mm socket head cap screw and small diameter spacer.

9. Install the supplied 42.0" belt and adjust the tensioner arm to tighten the belt.
Once done, tighten the jam nuts at each heim joint.

10. Extend the alternator wires to reach the new location (soldering is the only acceptable method of joining the new wires).

11. Reinstall the intake manifold and anything else that was removed.
