The alternator pulley on our 1982 desil Rabit truck is crooked compared to the other pulleys which are involved is this normal

Asked by carmelll Jul 26, 2017 at 12:42 AM about the 1982 Volkswagen Rabbit

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

It seems the alternator pulley being at slight off set angle compared to the
strait alignment of the other pulleys would wear out the alternator bearing or
belt faster then normal . My son says its normal ? any help appreciated?
