everybodyknowme Posted April 2, 2016 Report Posted April 2, 2016 I was running 2k on a factory alt and it showed signs of going bad before it died. My regulator was going up and down while driving, idle, etc. It lasted about a couple weeks like that before it went out. Silly me I tried to push it another week and got stranded. I tried that ebay stuff and local rewound units before and they were all crap. I called mechman the next day. Cant go wrong with them. Bad part about it I had to spend more doe to get another factory alt to ride while mechman unit was being built. Moral of this story, you know your overworking your alt. Invest in a good HO unit or downgrade your system. Don't be foolish.
Htown B.O.B. Posted April 2, 2016 Author Report Posted April 2, 2016 Gonna look into a new good alt do I have to get the biggest one they have or will something smaller work don't really plan on going much bigger in this truck
everybodyknowme Posted April 6, 2016 Report Posted April 6, 2016 if you're not gonna upgrade than you'll be fine with something smaller, but we've all said that before. I started with 500 watts now at 5K
Htown B.O.B. Posted April 6, 2016 Author Report Posted April 6, 2016 Gonna upgrade battery under the hood and gonna order a mechman 240. If by some chance I do upgrade would that alt work with addition of another battery or 2 in the back
