Use one of the other alternator bolts for testing, see if the threads are the same on the other bolt hole. If the bolt is a little long or short, just get a different length bolt from the hardware store.

If nothing else, use a tap and die set. If enough meat around the hole, drill the hole and retap the threads. Just a thought.

Bobcat 323 alternator bracket

Most likely yes, it is an 8. Best thing to do is take the bracket off the alternator to remount it. Then put the alt back on with slide/adjuster loose.

Alternator bolt size

the head size for socket size or actual bolt spec.?
you lost the bolt (not stated) or just want to unscrew it?

I'll'' guess at lost.
its metric.
and is 6mm or 8mm ? in size. (i bet 8)
buy some 6 and 8s in the store and see if one fits.
if one fits , you now know the diameter in mm and the pitch.
now buy the correct length (use a ruler)
