Guys,
There are a lot of alternator posts out there as well as a lot of different choices (Nations, Mechman, J2Fab, Pa Performance, Kenneth Miley Jr., stock rebuild, autozone, ebay special, etc.). Please answer all these questions to better help me and others know the options available.
1. What alternator did you choose, price, and why.
2. At what point do you need a 130, 185, 200, or 240A?
3. Did you do the big 3? What kit did you use and was there mods needed (splicing, etc.)
4. Did it fit or did you need to grind, and if so how hard was it?
5. Did it come with a pulley at all, have options for 2lb or 4lb lowers?
6. If you replaced the pulley what brand, was it easy, and did it line up?
7. How many miles does it have on it so far?
8. Does your battery light flicker or did the fix disable the light all together?
9. Other issues I forgot or statements as you see fit.
I am personally most concerned about it lasting, battery light flicker, alignment, and pulley swap.
Thanks, I know this is a lot but it seems like so many options out there and so many different opinions.
