OK Guys... need some expertise here...
I suspect the bearing on my alternator has given up the ghost so I'm looking for a replacement.
I don't really have lots of whistles and bells that drain juice, but it seems a sensible time to look at putting on an alternator that can handle all the extras an overland wagon would need. However.... I don't know what that would mena, nor if it would "overcharge" the battery.
So, what advice can you guys give re the selection of a higher rated alternator?
Feel free to explain the issues and offer part numbers or specific vehicle designations (as it's a whole lot easier to identify them when shopping!)
Cheers

Thanks Bigger... However... :oops:
Just discovered that the bottom mounting bolt has disappeared... allowing the fan protector to fall onto the fan blades... making a most distinctive ringing sound... !
So... all I need to save up for is a new bolt AND a lock washer!
:roll:
