Looks right and it works, but belt alignment will be off. Needs about 1/8 inch of shim to align with the other pulleys. See pictures. This adjustable bracket and pulley can be used on all 1968 - 1973 Cougars or Mustangs with the V-8 engine as long as they have the "stamped steel" lateral air compressor support brackets. This bracket will only have the big bearing pulley and may have various casting numbers such as D5TA-8A617, D3OA-8A617, D5OA-8A617, D8OA-8A617, etc.
This is a non-returnable item.
We also offer a bearing replacement service to rebuild your adjustable idler pulley, see item 27539
