The mounting bracket in the picture is the correct one. The tension bracket that yours should have is straigt and offset a little from what I remember. I dont think OEM sells the correct one but it shouldnt be hard to make. OEM part # 49288DA is a straight one but doesnt have the offset. And if I remember correct it is a little shorter. OEM # 60714DA is to short too.
Mine has a alt. and what I did was use #60714DA and added about a three inch piece with a hole drilled in each end. This gave it the offset I need as well as the extra length. I needed the bend like #60714DA has to mount the alt.
The old tension bracket shouldnt be hard to find if you have a salvage yard or something close by. That isnt something that goes bad so its usually there.
The end that mounts to the tractor uses a bolt right above the bottom return neck of the radiator. Your tension bracket will slope down toward the tractor a little. When you loosen the bolt you make have some water come out so dont leave the bolt out long.
Mine is a 1948 too. It was my fathers, he passed away two years ago and I decided to fix it up in his honor. It was used in the rose fields here in Texas for about twenty years. After we got the 140's it was used less and less until it was neglected. My cousin painted it and converted it to 12 volt but then for another 12 years it sat in the barn and parts used off it for the 140's.

As a matter of fact, some of the technology experimented with over 40 years ago makes today's tractor technology seem absolutely stale by comparison. Experimentation, from the most complex assembly to the most simple and mundane component, is as an integral a part of any farm tractor's development
