WTB bus generator backing plate
« on: August 23, 2010, 03:50:13 PM »
I'm looking for a fan shroud generator backing plate for the 38 AMP bus generator. I have beetle tin right now and it pushes the generator out too far throwing the pulleys out of alignment. If you have one send me a PM or call me at 604 302 7003.

Thanks

Stuart

Isn't it the generator that is longer?  Atleast this is what I thought.

Yes the generator is longer, so it uses a special bus only backing plate, fan hub and pulley to get the belt to line up.

Sorry Stu, none in my stash at the moment.

I found the backing plate and the fan hub but I am still looking for the pulley. According to a thread on The Samba the back half of the bus pulley is made of cast iron. If anyone has one they want to sell let me know, thanks.
