What alternator to get for 1987 BJ74 13BT (1 Viewer)

[venetsanos]

Hello
Looks like my alternator went out. I have a 1987 BJ74 13BT 24V.
What alternator would work for it?
Toyota or after market?
Part Number?
Does it have to be 12 or 24 volt?
Thanks for the help

24V alternators for the 13B-T are discontinued from Toyota.

It has to be 24V.

I would recommend that you take it locally to an auto electric alternator/starter shop and have them rebuild it.

Beno is right.
I drove 90 minutes to take my starter and alternator to an auto electrics shop.
The guy was not thrown by the 24V system and many individual bits are still made and used in other Denso products.

These shops usually have pretty amazing electrical wizards working in them who do a ton of 24 volt work for various industrial applications.

Pretty rural where I live but am counting on the yellow iron folks to be able to help me out when need be....

What's the part number on your alternator?

Not a 70, but I had good success having a LS1 alternator and starter rebuilt for a project at a local shop auto electrical shop. Cheaper than new OEM and very well done. I'd go that route for the difficult to find stuff like this.

Sheesh, been a while cross checking sources. Went and grabbed the part number off mine.
I've sent an enquiry to a source in Australia. Prices are really good, I got new alternator and starter
for my 12HT. But no listing for the 13BT. I'm doing this for me too, they don't last forever.
I'll post back when I hear back.

Australia never got 24V electrics. 12V only which won’t work here.

Not on Landcruisers, but the Coasters and Dynas with B engines had 24V

I found this part # 27020-56130, its for a 24v mid 80s BB20 Coaster bus, also fits the 2H bus. Its from the UAE for $678.
Surely, with all those buses and trucks( and they must far outnumber the BJ7* Landcruisers), there would be an aftermarket 24v alternator out there somewhere.

I heard back, they have none in stock. Didn't realize this was going to be an issue. Sorry couldn't help.
I'll keep looking.

So I received a couple of emails from Australia. They normally stock 12V alternators. No 24V in
stock. I'm going to keep looking, cause I have a 24V 13BT myself.

Does this look the same ,its 24 volt and 80 amp? EDIT. The mounting points look too close together.
