alternator

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...

I have a 1970 fj40 with F engine. After reading a number of alternator threads I have purchased a 1990 dodge Monaco alternator. Truck has basically no wiring, just the 4 wires to crank and run so no old wiring or reg to work around. What is the pinout on the 4 terminal plug?

Hey I have a 2001 100 series land cruiser and recently had some issues. Back story- it's my 3rd vehicle and has about 395k miles on it. Didn't drive it for 2 weeks and had a couple of cold days (close to freezing). Started it up but it was a hard start. Drove it about 2 miles, and everything...

Think what you will! My LC 200 y 2000 284k has been low humming,for 2 years but voltmeter showed new battery and old alt doing just fine at 12.+ Cold and 14.+ With engine on... All the way to this morning! 2 mechanics 2 yrs ago at maintenance said they couldn't hear the low hum nor replicate...

Hello all, the alternator on my 2005 LX470 with 150k miles has failed after a week or so of letting me know via slightly squealing. Totally dead now, and I need to dig in and replace it. I'm looking at the Denso 210-1099 as a replacement, but I want to proactively replace the tensioner and...

Good morning folks. ITS ROAST TIME!!!! So I changed the alternator on my 2000 LX470 yesterday. Normal issues finessing it out from bottom. Not a big Deal. But, for the life of me, I cant place this bracket!!! Let me have it people!! I know there's a lot of gurus in here that won't hold back!!!

With a Dakota Digital instrument cluster, what is the normal voltage reading at operating speed? Ours is consistently reading over 15v with headlights on. I’ve read Rudy’s excellent write/up on voltage regulators Voltage Regulator (ext.) / How it works -...

I picked up the appropriate plug for my alternator from @Coolerman and have a yellow and black/yellow wire now. But, no idea what wires they connect to on the 74 harness. Diagram says W, WG, WB but no wires like that near PS fender. By the igniter I have a BY and a B wire. ?? By the charcoal...

Does anyone know if the brackets from Photoman are still available? His inbox is full, so I cannot ask directly. Thanks
