Default Dual Alternator bracket for 89' E150 4.9L?

Hello all, I'm looking for a bracket I can either buy or build to install a 2nd alternator, would be wired to 24/24 DC to DC charger and then to my 24v house battery bank. Anyone here have any experience with this?

TIA!

I don't have experience with the 24 volt system but im wanting to add a second alternator to my 89 econoline 5.0. i don't have an ac pump so i thought i would do it there. oh and i have a 600ah 12v battery bank.

If what you are looking for is addl current output,why not just install a higher output alternator. Only consideration is the output wire going to the battery(s) would maybe need to be thicker, (lower gauge) wire to handle the higher current?

Dual system may require an isolation system set up.
