On my way to Spring Break Nationals 2014 Daytona Beach , Fl. Get to the parking garage everything is fine go to the show when leaving about 5 hrs later get in the truck and starts fine but the battery light is on saying not charging to late to buy anything or have it tested. When to the hotel waited out the night of course after a couple clubs and getting back around 4am. Did you think that was going to keep me inside hell no strip clubs n hot girls. Ok back on topic I wanted to go to the show on Sunday I remembered seeing Ohio generator there so I figured if they had a alternator for my truck I was in luck no matter the cost I was going to buy one. Went striaght there Sunday morning and talked to the owner and he said he did have a 300 amp alternator in the truck brand new $400 I was ecstatic I finally got the alternator I needed and wanted. anyways the first was from a local alternator shop in St. Petersburg, Fl. Which warranted but didn't have time to wait or drive back 160 miles with a bad alternator, my conclusion is no what I've done it buy good products that are made for your application the first time and you don't have to go through the headaches of doing it over and spending double the money.after changing it out took it up to advance auto had it bench tested spinning it by hand you could hear something rubbing the shaft tested and it failed the guy said he resistors broke of fell of how would something like this happen anyways?
