Help Please

[drunkmonkeyboy]

right latest update. took it back and it was bug*gered! got a replacment one and am gonna try that and see if it works. what i can tell you all is that it is actually a land cruser alternator, after changing the pully at the front for my original and putting the vac pump on the back fits a treat! (probably easyer to source too) the only thing i found is the bracket that holds the wire loom clip thingie to the side of the alternator has to come off as it catches on the steering and make one hell of a noise!
