[QUOTE="kkmike, post: 401009, member: 552924"] I was checking out a 200amp alternator for my 1999 Suburban. I see prices from $230 up to $750? What would be the difference? ie Ohio Generator & H-O-Alternator are in the $750 range; mralternator.com is $250. They're all new, not refurbished, so why such a price difference? I have a JL1000/1 and a JL300/4, which do ok at normal volumes - my stock alt is 140amp, but when I crank it, especially relentless bass lines, the headlights flicker a bit and you can see the volt gauge on the dash go down. Another question - when I'm driving, even cranked it's ok...it's just when I'm at idle the voltage take a hit; will a HO alternator help that? Or will it not make a difference at idle speeds anyway.
