High Output Alternator suggestions?

[infowarrior45 10+ year member]

So, I have come to the conclusion that I need a HO alternator to power my system. My budget maxes out at about $300.

It will be going into a '98 Jeep Cherokee. It needs to power a Kicker ZX1500.1 and a Zapco Reference 650.6.

I was able to find a Mean Green HO alternator I might be able to get for around $200 (never installed). Not sure if these could be recommended?

Well, only thing is I don't know exactly how much longer I'll have this Jeep, so I don't wanna spend a whole lot. Will a Mean Green suffice for a couple of years?

I have heard decent reviews of mean green alternators bro. I would say that considering your budget, that choice will sufice.

Mean green used to be recommended quite a bit. Haven't saw that name thrown around in a while though. Do some looking around and see what the reviews are like before buying. Also post a wtb on this forum and someone may have something within your budget.
