alternator

Trying to get my head around converting this 24V red block 13B-T to 12V, and I want to understand what is there so I can hunt down the right 12V replacement. Is the alternator lubricated with engine oil? Should these oil and ?? lines be retained? If so, where do the capped lines go and what...

I have a 2000 TLC with a bad alternator. Ordered an alternator online but after reading through this forum discovered that the early 100's came with either an 80 or a 100 amp alternator. (And of course I ordered the 80 amp!) Without removing how can I tell which one I have? (Cannot see any part...

Mine went out and I'm trying to save a few dollars. Any of yous guys have an alt for a 97?? I'm up here for a few days. Thanks

Hi All. so i just bought an aftermarket Apexmeter tachometer that is driven off of the alternator. has any one else installed this unit before or one that also uses the alternator? another question, which point on my alternator is the 'W' point? i have the original 2F alternator, externally...

I'm in the process of going ahead and installing the dual battery system that i've always put off. Part of the reason is i've been chasing some hard starting issues (electrical), weird battery drain (or possibly not getting adequate charging from Alt) and taking the opportunity to upgrade some...

I am in the process of replacing an engine in a 1991 FJ80. My replacement engine came with a factory alternator. I would like to use it if possible (I know it has low miles). The truck's wiring harness has an adapter plug that will fit the old alternator, but won't fit the new alternator. I...

I recently replaced my tensioner assembly. The nut on the top stud of the alternator was corroded onto the stud and when attempting to remove the nut, the entire stud backed out. I was able to get the nut off the stud and everything cleaned up, but now I can not get the stud to seal into the...

EDIT: dont read on, ignore this, the condensor is just a noise filter, not important.:flush: Just to find out what this little thing does some options and questions, spend a day trying to find answers as I have a new alternator but it does not have a new condensor and I dont trust the old one...

Hi all, I've been dealing with a charging issue for several weeks now and currently have my alternator at an alt specialty shop. They inspected it and found the stator, rectifier and diodes all to burnt and need replaced. Due to being a 2h 24v with the vacuum pump, parts are essentially...

Hello all, need help identifying my alternator. Think it is not stock. 1988 FJ62, all stock (besides perhaps alternator and stereo head unit), 176k miles. Voltmeter started reading at top end of gauge (16v) and aftermarket stereo shut off (over voltage cutoff I think). Didn't put a multimeter...

The alternator finally failed on me a couple of days ago on my 2000 LC. I'm considering a 2003+ 130 amp upgrade, just in case I ever add some extra lights. I'm trying to put together a pigtail so I don't have to cut the factory wires. I found the four way connector for the new alternator but...

hey guys, I need your thoughts on a new alternator for my 2h. I need a 90+ preferably over 100A alternator. this is because I plan on running a pair of Fyrlyt Nemesis 9000 250w Halogen spotties (freaking awesome lights). now just got the phone to one of the designers, (great bloke, really...

Looking for opinions / experiences for any online places I can send a toyota alternator to be completely rebuilt? Has anyone sent theirs out and had good experiences from a particular place? I would like for someone to pull it apart, clean it etc.

Hi All, I just purchased a seq alternator to rebuild for my 80 series. This is the first time doing this and am wondering if anyone has the parts I will need with the corresponding factory numbers? Thanks, Noah

I posted a sneak peek on Monday of a DC Power Inc 270 amp alternator I ended up purchasing for the Cruiser. I got around to installing it, along with the wiring kit I had user @Fourrunner make yesterday. Wanted to give everyone the low down on the install. First of all, my reasoning for...

I'm sure my alternator is on its last legs, I'm on vacation for another week and a half and I'm doing alot of driving deep into the mountains to visit snowboarding summits and the last thing I want is to have to get towed home. My 80 is stock as far as electronics go (besides aftermarket head...

Does anyone know if the alternator from a fj60 with the 2f will fit and work with my 77 fj40?

Hi, this evening found my alternator isn't charging. After a bit of research it is only 55amp. I've got a winch and lights ect and think this might be a bit much for it. Does anyone know of a higher amp version or a hi amp alternator that can be retrofitted? My alternator looks to have an...

I recently developed a gnarly under-hood rattle when my 91 is put into drive or reverse. I was able to get under the hood with my kid standing on the brake and observed the alternator shaking like crazy. I pulled the fan and WP pulley and tightened every bolt that even had the appearance of...
