Update - the AC brackets will definitely work with some modifications, but the AC compressor sticks out further than the Alternator would so have to build spacers to move it out in line with the rest of the serpentine belt. Will get it all mocked up and see if it is just easier to build a new bracket as trying to find the correct Pinto or Ranger assembly is like a dog chasing their own tail.
After seeing all the aftermarket support the for 5.0 the lack of 2.3 support is really surprising!!
