Well, it looks like I have another casualty. After 102,000 miles it looks like my alternator is dying. I tested it today and its putting out 60amps vs the 136 its supposed to. My new 160 amp alternator will be Friday.

 

Just outta curiosity, measure the pulley on your old one and your new one...

 

No worries man, I can do that Friday morning.
Its this one 12328, 160 amp alt for a 04 Durango 4.7L.

It looks like the same 136 amp alternator is found on the 3.7s as well. I wouldn't mind picking a 160amp...not that the HHR fan is on.

 

160amp means more lights you think itll fit the 08s+

 

I don't know about the 08s. There are a lot of performance parts that will work on our trucks but we can't find them by looking for i.e. 07 Dakota Q/C 3.7L, lol. If I can ever get my hands on an 08 4.7L engine, I will be able to tell you about what kind of goodies out there will work on it. Almost anything electrical I can find a math just like my MAP sensor, or my SVT injectors or this alternator. The stuff is out there we just have to know what to look for.

 

if you move to canada your more than welcome to tinker with mine

 

Thank you brother. If I'm ever down that way it would be my pleasure.

 

Don't you mean, "up that way"?

 

Your probably right Donkey, but its a pretty long road trip either way.
