Default Laser for pulley alignment

Looking for a laser alignment devise and curious on what kind of laser mounting device it is and where do you beg, borrow or buy such a device for aligning the pulleys?
Thanks, Kirby

I purchased my Gates Laser Alignment tool from SJ Discount Tools. $125 shipped. Search for "LAZ91006".

I used the Gates tool to align the pulleys on my S/C bracket. I had to machine new shoulder bushings to get the alignment right.... the original setup was misaligned by one rib from the Reichard S/C pulley to the ribbed idler... only a distance of 6"!! I shredded a belt in less than 800 miles. If your having belt issues....check the pulley alignment.

Craftsman laser trac designed to level pictures and stuff like that. Not fancy, but it has a magnet on it so you can mount it on a pulley, and its only $40 @ sears
