[QUOTE="jt4x4, post: 8714672, member: 677386"] I can't speak to either of those brands, but warranty policies are often testament to product quality in my opinion. You can keep your oem alternator and a few tools in the vehicle if you are nervous, but a bad alternator won't leave you stranded unless it completely siezes or the pulley falls off. After i finished the engine swap in my 4x4, I drove it for days before I realized my alternator wasn't charging. Regardless of how long it will last, if you need it you need it. You don't have the option to not upgrade it if your stereo and listening habits will otherwise leave you with a dead battery. I went with Iraggi, and I know that's a polarized word around here, but I am a sucker for a lifetime warranty, and their trade-in policy is a cool perk. - Joe [/QUOTE]
