SNJ pine barrens cold weather camp / cookout

And it was 7:30 before we got into town. Everything but Wawa was closed.

 

Just get an alternator repair kit (brushes and voltage regulator). Much cheaper and less crap to lug around and easy enough to replace if you're taking the alternator out anyway. The rest of the alternator is just wire and magnets, not much that can go wrong there.

Oh boy, do we have another Eddie's stuck saga?

 

Seems like I, but he's not as far from home it seems. But I don't know those details.

 

You gotta look it up for 2nd gen. I got mine off ebay. Get the part number for your alternator then find the brushes and voltage regulator that work for it.

 

i recommended a trip to auto zone in berlin for an alternator & cheap tool kit since none of us had tools but he didn't seem to wanna go for that

 

the bearing in mine took a shit after it was submerged for a few hours, don't know why though

 

we're dumb ass's.. apparently google maps says there's an advance auto right on washington quaker bridge road

 

I had tools, extra wheel bearing and a full sized spare in my bed, including digging and pulling gear in my truck. Never been to Wharton before but I've been wheeling for years.

 

too bad we didn't get the tandem tacoma > jeep pull on vid

 

the water out of the cab gets me every time

 

I couldn't find the post haha I'm stuck at the dealer waiting on them

 

Hey! I called Steve and said something and he seriously thought it was just wet, but don't say I didn't notice haha

 

so what happened after Wawa...

 

Well my truck is working just the alt isn't for cheap Chinese eBay fog lights they held up better then expected. Got a new alt with a Lifetime warranty, she'll be sputtering through the mud in a few.

 

I will be surprised if the alternator was the only thing he killed...... you could have drove over and towed him to your house cuz we were all getting sick of pulling over every mile to charge him up lol

 

it was fine until said charge rescue vehicle had to double back to rescue the jeep that decided to go through the death pit on the way out lol

 

he thought he killed the starter & 4wd when he was stuck in 4lo but it was just because the battery was near dead.. too funny

 

Is that really all it took to kill the alternator?

All this got me was a squeaky idler pulley:


Took about 20 times of doing that in fhlarton to kill my alternator. And all it needed was a little cleaning up.

1st gen FTW!

 

Made it home on the factory parts WOO! Now time to change the alt or run over slow people
