1947 ½ ton correct generator bracket

[Spuhn]

I  recently purchased a 1947 WC which has an alternator.  I want to convert it back to 6V and have a generator but am trying to find the correct upper bracket.  My truck has a straight upper bracket with a slot in it but I've seen photos of a more triangular shaped bracket with a slot in one portion of it.  Which one is correct?

I had a 1938 engine that had the triangular bracket with 2 bolts holding it to the water pump ... my 1949 has a straight bracket with only one bolt holding it to water pump.

So they had both .... which year did they change?

 

When I converted to a alternator, I modified the bottom bracket to work with the alternator .... the top bracket worked just fine as it was stock.

Probably a good chance the bracket you have is also original and just works as is. ..... or not.

I think the WCs use the triangle ones. I have some books at home I can check.

Here is a photo of my bracket from my 47 half ton.  I may have an extra if you need one.  Bob Harrison

My 41-47 book shows part number 622783 but there is no picture. The Canadian 40-47 Dodge and Fargo book shows the same part number and a picture of the straight bar style. I always thought the triangle one was the earlier version but my 36-48 Plymouth book pictures the straight style too.
