J.B. Weld and or aluminum welding

I have seen some elaborate and scary epoxy repairs that worked, but I don't think epoxy would be a good long-term option for this job.

To position everything for welding, a simple flat plat with a few holes drilled at the right places could serve as a fixture. Add some bolt and spacers, and maybe a couple of clamps, and that should work.

Be aware that serpentine belts cannot tolerate the misalignment that v-belts can, so make sure the pulleys are lined up with each other and not running at an angle to the belt.

The best option would be to find a bracket that does what you want. If not a production item, maybe something aftermarket. Hopefully someone here can put you on to a bracket that will do what you want.

I think after reading around the 'net about JB Weld, this probably isn't the time for me to use it and hope for a positive long-term effect. I'll do my best to get it all clamped together and get it some place for welding.

I actually bought a laser pulley alignment tool, a while back, so, in that regard, I should be able to get it setup properly.
