Do you guys think a rebuilt truck alternator (5.3 from an escalade or denali) would be worth the cost for my 2002 t/a? some guys have problems with their rebuilt but if its already bigger than stock, it will at least put out more than stock, right?


O rielys has them with a lifetime warranty for $150 and some 0 gauge wire should do the trick.

 

Well my truck alt puts out more power at idel than my stock one put out at 5000 rpm. New and got it here

tight fit but it will go in.

 

my junkyard truck alt for 40$ has been going strong for over a yr

 

I'm running an '03 Escalade alternator. $69 (picked for me) from the local salvage yard. Works great so far, bolted right in.

 

get one from a salvage yard. It will probably last you as long as the rebuilt one and at a fraction of the cost.

 

try powerbastards as well, if you're looking to spend what the qualitypowerauto is asking.
