1999 LX470 Alternator Failing! Can I upgrade to 130 Amp?

Hey Spressomon, thanks for the help. I'm headed down to the Toyota dealership with old connector. Hopefully they can match it. It appears the eBay options require me to splice the line, so I figured I would just cut the old one out as I can't wait for eBay to mail me a connector.

Hoser, that is a ton of information on connectors. I'll have to keep that for a reference guide. Thanks

I believe the 3 pin connector is 90980-11349

Splices 82998-12440

90980-11349 - Toyota Parts Deal

If you have the tool you can release the pins inside the connector(s) and just swap in the connector portion without splicing. Access is a little tight either way ... but with patience it can be done (been there, done that).

Thanks for posting this link. Been looking for this resource for a couple of weeks.

I'm running a 280 amp alternator (or is it 230 amp...) in my 98 LC. Forgot who the manufacturer is, but they're local (for me) here in So. Cal.
If you really need/want to know the manufacturer, let me know and I'll dig out my receipts.
