how much does the stock 3.0 alternator put out any one know? and what do you guys suggest as far as amperage replacement. the truck has lightsand winch's lots of snow wheeling so i have all the accessories on like the heater/ head lights and what not . thanx for the reply.
run an auxiellary battery
Ok, looks like I can get a Lexus SC400 100 amp alternator, used, locally here for $80.Then I will have *potentially* a 100 amp output (maybe maybe not for it is used), I will have to fit it which means time on new brackets, and possible wiring issues.Or I can have my stock alternator rebuilt at a shop for $160 and they claim its output will be 120 amps, and they will load test it on an amp machine before I pick it up to ensure my satisfaction.Recently, what I've learned is that my time has become faaaaaar more valuable than I once considered it, and to be able to just upgrade my stock part -- which they can do in 2-3 hours -- yields more time to focus and work on other more important jobs that I need to do to my truck.So looks like it will be a modified stock alternator at 120 amps for me Thanks for all the feedbackBigMike
Hey Mike, You gotta name and number for this "local" company? . I'd like to send them mine to do the same. thanks
