Finally took the subs out.
One looks absolutely fine, but is reading 0ohms on both coils, so i assume the tinsel broke in the spider, since the coil looks fine.
As for the other fire breathing sub, i got some pics of the spider.

Coil is fine on this one too.. No more integrated lead for me.

Got the other cone off today

gallery_5_564_393560.jpg

actually looked just fine.
When i pushed the cone all the way up, i could get it to read some funky ohmage, but i think it was just aligned wrong and some CA glue got on the pole.
Im assuminng thats what this gunk is inside the coil and well as that scratch/rubbing mark

Babies need some TLC x 10 ....CA glue all in the gap.

Plan on repainting the baskets and getting a dremmel to shine these motors back up.
didn't realize they were that bad until i looked at the other 2 i just bought. lol

Also here is my attempt at sycing music with the song im playing.

This was before I had set my EQ and gains and what not, also before I found out 1 of my batts had a dead cell and my dustcaps popped off

just smoked my 2cd alt somehow  sigh.gif

 

Was driving and smelled something funny didn't pay any attention.

Came to work this morning and was sitting in the parking lot and im like hmm my voltage is only at 13.6v.

No mind its like 90deg so it shouldn't be as high.

 

start seeing smoke come from under the hood and think well dam i guess this electric fan isn't cutting it.

Go home for lunch pop the hood again and start looking around and see the windings on the alt burnt to crisp.

 

I can think of 2 or 3 reasons why... im not really concerned just dont feel like taking this bracket back off..

My next attempt will be to fit the 1 wire turn on gm alt. Ive seen some 300a going for some good prices

It smoked it because it wasn't being cooled. The alt pulls air through it when it's running clock wise.. since you put it in there backwards it no longer cooled it's self.

I called mean grean and he said it wouldn't matter on those alts.

Also its the same setup and alternators as the limo town cars.

 

for pics sake

when I spoke to MechMan they strongly suggested I not do the very same application you did. They said they would end up burning up
