90+ 240 Alternator Adjuster Bushing 200

The bushing at the block for the pivot.

These things are problematic - I've seen a few that the bolt breaks off because of the poor design and mount. You're basically bolting the accessory bushing to the block (1/3 of it with no support - towards the tension...brilliant), then the bracket is held on by just the pressed in bushing. UFB.

Does anyone know the reason behind having to have a bushing at the block? Has anyone ever used one of the solid-aluminum bushings instead? That would be better (a welded washer that holds the actual bracket to the block would be even better) - but was wondering why they feel the need for a cushion there, or if it matters.
