    Just like it says i had a local shop that specializes in rebuilding elcetrical parts take my factory alternator and turn it up to 130A but that still wont cut it. so im looking for a bigger one. Im $150 into this one and it's only got 5,000 miles on it. i was thinking $100 and shipping costs and it's yours.

    At 1800rpm it puts out over 130 blew my 150 amp fuse. that's y i want bigger. Lexus is where it at but it's gonna be pricy.

    Would not recomend if you do alot of low rmp stuff cuz hi amp alternators dont perform at idle

    The alternator will only make 130 amps under load when needed not because it can if you blew a 150 amp fuse you got problems. The tow package alt is 130 amps mine does not blow fuses even charging the twin camper batteries and the one in the truck. Stick a Ford cop car alternator on it if you want amps it will do 280 amps and it will cost you close to 10HP to run it full load.

    I do have problems like i was using more than 150 amps and the alterator put out enough amps to blow the ever living shit outa that fuse. So point being goood alternator, no problem. second Lexus is a toy brand and i would not basterdize my truck with some ford garbage id rather spend some money and stay toyota. Side note SAS's don't count if toyota made one tones id stick toy but they don't, and at least my axle's will be made my Dana not ford.

    PM a moderator when you have pics to post. They must be pics of the actual item, and not a manufacture stock photo, or a pic belonging to someone else.
