[QUOTE="KTMrida4life, post: 8137391, member: 637865"] Cant believe the questions people ask on here. There is a reason the alternator came with a pulley on it, if you were supposed to swap your pulley onto it he would've told you that. It is built to withstand more RPMs to make more overall amperage and the smaller the alternator pulley is in comparison to your crank pulley the faster the alternator will spin. By making the alternator pulley bigger, you drastically reduced the RPMs the alternator sees and drastically reduced its output. Swap the pulley back how it should be, get a belt that fits TIGHT or you will have belt slip. Also belt slip can happen sometimes without even making any of your typical belt squeel noise. [/QUOTE]
