Nay-Sayer Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Any recommendations on where I should get a replacement alternator? Was looking at what Rock Auto offers but wanted to get some input from here first. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Reverse Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) About $25 at my local salvage yards and a little time. Lasted many years longer than the 3 stockers I got from the parts store. That is what the Quest alternator set me back. Back then it was $15 for the alt and I had to fab a mount for my old VG30 engine. Easier with the current engine in my truck.

Nay-Sayer Posted October 30, 2019 Author Share Posted October 30, 2019 The Quest alternator works on the VQ35 engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onespiritbrain Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 VQ35 already has a 110A alternator. The Quest alternator puts out 125A. Not a big enough jump to me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onespiritbrain Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Lifetime guarantee auto parts store alternators are what I have always used. I can confirm that they suck. Cheapest chinesium bearings, extremely soft commutator, garbage brushes, wont last two years... but once you buy one you can replace them for free forever... Id rather have a high quality alternator but im not shelling out $300 for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
