***update 5-16-08*** 225 Amp Alt Installed.


Recommended Posts

well, for a couple hours work and my first time changing an alternator, i think i did alright.

so i started by getting my old one off, which was more then a bitch being as the engine was still hot.

so i grabbed my wrenches to determine the size. once i got the size i broke out my socket and rachet, and got that bitch outta there. i had a hellacious time getting the new one in there cause of the serpentine belt not wanting to go back the way it should :P

after some forcing and adjusting of screws, i got the bitch in there. !!!!! well, my voltage now sits above the little half way marker on my volt meter on my dash but not to much of a noticable difference but then again i havent gotten the kinetik 2400 in there yet either. that should come in the next few days.

anyone wanna see pictures??
