    I took a few photos when I did my timing chain a couple of months ago. The brackets are very simple. The only thing you would need is a drill, a hack saw, and some files. I had to cut and weld the top bracket, but I'm betting you could find one to fit from another car or truck.
    I didn't take a photo of it installed, I can do that later today. The wiring, i just cut the pigtail off of the 2 wires on the factory harness, and crimped on 2 spade terminals. You can buy 10/12si pigtails for just a few bucks to make it look a little nicer.
    I was able to retain the stock size fan belt also.

    Ideally the lower bracket could have a connecting link so that the front and back are always clocked the same in relation to the timing cover. I was in a rush to get it back on the road so its 2 pieces plus 2 spacers. Crude, but It's been on there for over 50K miles with no problem

    Hmm, I wonder how different it is on my truck. I'll find out tonight. I hope I don't have to do any special brackets for it. I just want to be able to drive my truck again. Lol
