Posted February 4, 201114 yr So its been awhile since i have made a topic on here. So, i moved houses the past week and when i was cleaning out the garage i found a brand new alt my dad bought for his lumina that didnt fit. Would it be worth making a dual alt bracket and putting two stock alts in my truck? or is that just a waste of time?. I mean i already have the alt, so that was free, and i figured to make a dual alt bracket it wouldn't be to hard considering i have access to my high school metal shop. so the question is would it be worth making that or should i just buy a new alt?
February 4, 201114 yr I don't know what truck you have. I'm assuming a Chevy since you said the alt is from a Lumina. I would say sell it and upgrade to a GM large case AD244 alt. Those are rated for 100amp at idle and 145amps peak.
February 5, 201114 yr Personally I think dual or triple stock alts would be great set up.Factory alts usually have really good output at idle, are very reliable, and can be found on the cheap. Some even with a lifetime warranty.
February 5, 201114 yr Author allright. do people buy or make their own brackets? could i be able to find a cutout or anything. i still need to do a lot more research on it.
February 5, 201114 yr Hit up tejcurrent on here.If he does not have a bracket, I am sure he has it in the works. Last time I spoke to him he had a bunch of new stuff in the works.
