you want a Toyota alternator?? or you just want one that is bolt on? the alterstart alt bolts right on, no hassle. just e-mail them, and they send you the alternator with that part number.
I want an OEM Toyota unit if one exists. I want to go to Trak Auto and ask for an alternator for 'X' vehicle. If I can't get something tomorrow I'll check out Alterstart.
The 3.0 unit looks the same as the one on the 22RE. Only problem, Autozone wants $329 for it. Even 1/2 price at Trak it would $165. Alterstart has that 135amp for $179 and it's a bolt-on AFAIK.
I bought one from Alterstart for $130.00 on E-Bay about a year ago for my 4Runner. Came with a 1 year warranty, shipped from Texas. The Alternator looks exactly the same as the stock one, but heavier. Never had it load tested, but havent had a problem yet.
I got a Delco CS 130 105 amp alternator from the junkyard for $30 it looks pretty new has a test date of may 2000 on it.
I have kind of a diagram I made as a reference how to wire it to your exisiting toyota harness.
Anyways I was wondering people that have put one of these styles on a V6 what does the lower bracket you made on look like? I think the top bracket should work no problem it's just the lower one that would have to be fabbed.
I read somewhere that the guys that make the Mobi-Arc on board welding systems sell an upgraded stator and diode assembly that replaces the parts (simple bolt in) in your stock alternator and bumps it up to 90 amps, goes for about 60 bucks. Give em a call...........Hans
