Well I'm not a rocket scientist but I did develop A/C and Alternator
Adjustor's that are available through Jim K at Applied. I approached the
problem with technology that I developed for Seat Track adjusters in a
previous life in Automotive.
Lead screws are used extensively for fore/aft motion automotive seat
adjusters. (And still are) The problem was that the drive nut was fixed to
the lower member of the track causing a "Squeal" that could be heard out
side of the vehicle. The CAUSE was due to misalignment binding and the
stick slip of the thread engagement. (Chrysler products of the mid 90's)
I developed and hold the Patent on, an articulated drive block that allows
for two degrees of motion.....two directions of motion.
IT WAS ENGINEERED TO ACCOMPLISH:
1. Efficient linear motion in all degrees of misalignment.
2. Increased the speed of operation and consistency of movement
3. Lowers seat track power requirements.
4. Fits in a small space. Less than an inch in height.

I used this component in both the A/C and Alternator Adjustor's. WHY? The
adjustment nut overall height is about an inch and is robustly affixed to
the alternator or A/C unit and cannot tilt and mis-align with the lead
screw. In addition, it is able to freely move from this fixed location
and align with the angle bracket that is pushed against. A 1/2-13 lead
screw does the pushing. As you rotate that lead screw you can DIAL IN the
pressure applied and then advance the jamb nut to lock everything in place.
When you come back to it in 6 mos. it will still be in the position you
previously set. At that time when you increase the pressure you are IN
FACT adding more tension to the belts, not recovering from looseness caused
by slipping components.
TRY IT YOU WILL LIKE IT! IF YOU DON'T I'LL BUY IT BACK FROM YOU!
CALL ME & I WILL SEND YOU INSTRUCTIONS AND PICS!
