Which V8 Land Rovers does this bracket fit?
This bracket fits the 3.5L V8 petrol Defender (1987-2006, twin-carb), Discovery 1 (1989-1998, twin-carb and EFI) and Range Rover Classic (1986-1991, twin-carb and EFI). Check your VIN against the ranges, as Discovery 1 fitment runs to VIN WA799999 and Range Rover Classic to VIN HA610293.
Is fitting the alternator bracket a DIY job?
Fitting the Alternator Bracket is a moderate DIY job on the 3.5L V8, bolting to the engine to carry the alternator and set the belt-tension geometry. You'll typically need to slacken the drive belt and support the alternator. Correct belt alignment matters once it's refitted.
