i am going to rip all wires out of the whole truck and rewire with little as possible..
just the got to have wires.... no bs no spiderwebs under the hood or dash....
this is just a trail rig, no switch,just a switch panel form 12 volt guy with the push button
resets all nice and neat..

         but that is a good idea.. if trying to keep it yota....
thanks ...    brian higdon.

The CS-130/CS-130D also gives you the chance to throw half of the underhood electrical stuff in the trash.

The mounting tabs on the GM alternators and the Denso alternators are very similar. You´ll need to shim the GM´s lower tab since its thinner than the Denso tab.

Then drill 2 holes in some flat stock and put it between the upper mount and the upper tab on the GM alt. The lenght of the flat stock depends on your belts and clearance but don´t be surprised if you need to find a new belt to fit.

I think you can use the Toyota pulley on the GM alt.

Here is a thread that I did on putting a 160 amp Powermaster on my 3.0 V-6. Embedded in the thread is a link for putting one on a 22r.
