HPI_Savage25 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) Hmmm so I can't get a decent alternator for my truck without spending $300+ (Out of my price range) I started looking up alternators for my 1988 S-10 blazer. Has the 4.3 in it. Well I ran across a company that makes a 200+ amp alternator for $189. Not bad IMO. Going to hit DC power up and see what they have also.....thinking of using the blazer since I can get a way better electrical system than in my truck for much less. http://stores.channeladvisor.com/db-starte...x?itemid=146950 Edited June 17, 2009 by HPI_Savage25 Quote Breaking in a sub is like breaking in your girl before you pound her....

Zade08 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) I bought my 200amp from one of these guys off of ebay for like 150 or so and I had it benched at auto parts and the read out said like right over 180 or so. The guy at auto parts said there machine wouldnt be able to test it fully though as it couldnt put a big enough load on it. So I figured even at 180amps for right over 150 in the escape was good enough for me. Hasnt failed me yet and its been through a weekend at mudfest with no cover. lol Cant complain. This was the company I bought mine from. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-Escape...sQ5fAccessories Also 888 post. woot!!!
