Bought a new "genuine" alternator from eBay Bay Ford Parts. The rear mount was not threaded. Respose from them when I complained "We have sold 715 of these without an issue.This material is designed to have a self forming thread once fitted to vehicle". I would love to see the factory screw make its own thread into that hole without wrecking it. Anyway I had the hole tapped with the 8 x 1.25mm thread. Seems odd to me that was the way to manufacture something "genuine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
