do i need to make new brackets or do they just bolt up?

95 cobra alternator bolt up with a little fab.... (adding a 3/8" spacer to the engine side of the adjustment bracket and rewiring 3 wires) other than that it is cake.... it will set you back between 150-200 depending where you go but it is really simple... i just went thru this hassle last weekend so check out my tech article on it and make your own decision..... i chose the 130 amp alternator due to the fact i am currently running 2 viair 380's and will be running 6 total with 3 amps along with either 4 optima yellow tops or 4 kinetik batteries to back up the alt.....so if you run 2 comps and 2 or more amps the 130amp will be the best best and more than likely it is in stock at your local parts house....
