Colorado guy Posted November 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 I do have the big 4 done ... electronics right now are two amps one dc 90.4 and one dc 5 k got one xs power battery group 3400 and two 3100 . I do have some belt slip ... just when it shift at higher rpm ... I was going to get a slightly smaller belt to see if it fixed that .... nothing's hooked up at the moment ... so there is no load on it ... I believe this truck does have a PCM controlled altinator ...there is not much I can do about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedal Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 it is PCM controlled. GM vehicles 2004 and newer received that "upgrade". You can get around it by having dual alternators. leave your stock alternator for the truck, to be controlled by PCM, and use your Singer alt separately for the aftermarket stuff. The singer alt will need to be self excited. Contact Mike Singer about accomplishing that, and he'll likely only charge you parts plus shipping to get it done for you. it might sound tedious to have two separate electrical systems in one vehicle, but it's rather simple. edit: I'd like to correct myself. I believe 06/07 is when they started the PCM b/s, I got confused with that stupid current sensor they started in 04.

Colorado guy Posted November 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Thanks for the info ... Where would I put another altinator ... has anyone done this upgrade ... the only place it could go is where the a.c. compressor is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tboorn Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 it would attach next to the current alt with a proper mounting bracket. if youre contacting singer you should receive parts that are essentially "plug and play", no modification, or little to none, it should all bolt on Fidelity Built to Last Team Sound Asleep 24Runner Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/196657-24runner-sleeper-system-lots-of-fi-neo-dd-focal-new-video-w-juicebox-lithium/ 2 x 12" Fi BTL N2 / 2 x 12" Fi BTL N3 2 DD M3b Maxwell 2.7V 3000F Supercapacitors Pioneer DEH-80prs Focal P165 V30 components Rockford Fosgate T-400.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado guy Posted November 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 They don't make a bracket for my vehicle ... plus there isn't a lot of room next to the altinator so it's hard to run two altinators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
