Alternater pics needed

Hey folks, putting my truck back together, its a '78 with a 460 in it, and I can't remember quite how the alternater bolts on, and with what hardware, with what brackets, and in what holes. Anyone have any decent reference pics they could post or put up a link to? Thanks

yikes, that looks nothing like what I have, but yeah its a 4x4. No telling what the brackets I have came out of, as the engine was already swaped into a bronco when I had pulled it out for mine. Somewhere along the way my braketry got mixed up in a pile with some from a 351 M, and a 302, so I don't know whats what, but none like that...

Maybe this will help. It's from the Ford parts manual.

Haha nah, but we were stuck in the house here for 4 days till they got around to plowing our back road. Good thing my sis's friend was stuck here too to keep me warm! But in all seriousness, it really made me wish my truck was done.
