alternator

Hi Everyone, did the regular searchin around, found the voltage regulator thread. couldnt find my answer and no one responded when I posted in that tthread so Ill try here. 82 hj47 troopy previously had adjusted my "tab" in the VR with sucsess to acheive 14.2 at 2000rpm. over about a2 months...

My 100 wouldn’t start on a cold morning this week. I jumped battery and it started. I replaced the battery with a Duralast Gold 27. The last two times I’ve driven it, a major vibration/shaking develops when I was at a stop light, and right after pulling into a parking spot. It went away...

My HJ61 12HT has some questionable wiring done to it in the past, but has been very reliable until recently. I don't have a multimeter yet, so I haven't taken readings of anything, just getting advice. In the past 2 months on road trips the voltmeter on the dash will sit steady at 24V (middle)...

I have a 1994 FZJ80. I recently replaced the alternator with an Denso replacement from @cruiseroutfit. Still was having issues with a dead battery on occasion. I replaced the fusible link and installed a new battery tonight. I had the old one tested and it had gone bad. I had them test the...

I have what I believe to be the original alternator from my '72 FJ40 and I plan to install a Sniper. The alternator was rebuilt and I'd really like to use it in the build. I've read conflicting information regarding the amperage output required for the Sniper. Some say the OE alternator with a ~...

Battery light came on and you can see the volt guage dropping on the dash with the car running. Voltmeter reads 10V at the battery with engine running. 11-12 volts with engine off. Turning headlights on will stall the motor. I have to use a jump pack to move the car from lot to lot. Does not...

I upgraded the factory alternator to a higher amperage unit to support, among other things we want to do, charging a travel trailer under tow. In another thread titled "Trailer Power" https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/trailer-power.1317688/ we were talking about powering a travel trailer from...

Hey Everyone, First time posting so quick intro....I have an 02 LC with 209k miles. No major modifications, just larger BFGs and had spacers in there but one broke so I just went back to stock. I do some work myself(heater Ts, radiator, AC drain reroute, thermostat housing reseal and O ring...

Two months ago the alternator in my parents’ 1999 started making a weird whirring/moaning noise, and about two days later stopped charging. Replaced it with a reman unit from my local dealer. This week that unit started making the exact same noise. It’s still charging at the moment but the...

Hey guys. Still working on this 1974 FJ40, tying up loose ends before it leaves the state in a few days. Have to do an FJ60/2F "internally"-regulated alternator conversion to accommodate the FJ60 clutched water pump that I put in, and am running into some trouble with wiring. @Coolerman made me...

This has been documented on a few other threads but I figured I would add a definitive OEM solution for this problem. Background: A few weeks ago my mother's 1998 LX470 started up with an illuminated battery light. I the volt-meter in the cluster read 18V+ so I used the spare tire kit (there's...

Hey there, I need a 2-groove or 3-groove OE harmonic balancer from a 2F in good condition (mainly, no groove worn from the front crank seal). I'll need it shipped to San Jose, CA...if you have one, please PM me and we can talk. Also need the alternator bracket that mounts to the passenger top...

I have a 2001 Lexus LX470 that won’t charge the battery. The alternator, the belt tensioner and the serpentine belt were replaced today. It still won’t charge and I am lost at what to look at next. The two frame grounds near the battery have been checked, cleaned and tightened. All of the fuses...

67 FJ40, 78 2F engine. Installed by the PO. It came with a 6-blade plastic fan, the long 2-groove pulley, a 2-groove pulley on the alternator, a rusty unusable radiator, and a water pump that was trashed so I didn't keep it. I've tried a 1F water pump, it was too long. One of the reputable...

greetings and salutations, I just got my hands on a Dakota Digital gauge system and I’m in the process of adding tachometer capability. I can either use an inductive sensor for the tooth flywheel, or the “W” terminal from the 24 V alternator. Does anybody here have any experience doing either of...

The washer that's pressed into the alternator mount has popped out (Wether it's supposed to to that or not idk) and I can't get it back in to refit the alternator anyone got any tips on how to do it or is there a tool that will do it.

Newb here, trying to sort out a recently acquired FJ80 from Japan. On the way from the port had a couple warning lights and the charge light next to the amp meter go on, then within 20 minutes the thing stalled out, wouldn't start unless a jump pack was on. Among other signs; radio wouldn't...

My battery won't charge on hot days. I think it might be the alternator belt stretching. I can't think of anything else that could cuase this has anyone run into the same problem and how did you fix it?

Refreshing your 60 Series Gasoline or DIESEL Alternator Connections Connectors Rubber Boots Ring Terminals Mounting Hardware 33+ Years Later and Why : i will go over my recent experience and what i discovered on GHOST's 3FE 5/89 - digging hardened then hard in JAPAN to find the original...

My 80’s alternator went out so I figured I’d jump on the bandwagon of putting bigger alternators on. At my local parts store they’re actually cheaper than stock 80 amp alternators. It seems Photoman’s no longer making his brackets and no one’s selling one at the moment so I decided to modify my...
