alternator upgrade

[Red hilux]

Do you fellers get the 1hz over there??

If so, you can make them fit the 1kzte surf, upgrading to 110Amps, with only a tiny mod

Yes, we see it in the 80 series Landcruisers over here.

show us how you done it!
write up? pics?

[Red hilux]

yes, Ive done it

I didn't get pics while doing it but these are the one I could try and get

If your mechanically minded and and have access to a welder.

The only think you need to do it extend that adjustment bracket 50 to 75mm from memory. The plugs are all the same

This is on my 'to do' list - I remember NiftyNev giving me the info but I lost it on my old pc. Still have the pic of the 2 alts side by side.

Might be useful in the future, if you store documents in a service like Dropbox you won't loose them...

Can't remember which one I worked it out to be...it's all about plugs, bracket and pulley matching.

An alternator from a 1hz will fit a kzn130 surf

It won't work on a ln130 and not sure on the knz185
