OMG Does anyone know where i can get an alt?

[Anonymous 10+ year member]

I have a 2004 Durango and i have called MCR, alternator parts, Zena, Powermaster, and numerous others trying to find a 200A alt. The only place that i have found that has a direct nippondenso replacement is Ohio-Gen and the place i am going through wants $700 for it. I'm not paying that. The only other place i found was ea but i do not know if that will work out because i have a denso and he said he did not know if he could do anything with that but he could upgrade a bosch alt. So does anyone know where to get a 200A alt that will be cheaper than $700 that will work in my truck, hell it does not need to be a direct replacement just one that i can upgrade to.

Your going to want a direct replacement. Fabbing up brackets unless your a machinist is not cheap work either - find room for a larger case may be hard too. Did you ever try anything besides the larger ALT to fix your problem or is this just a "replace it and see what happens" sort of deal......

The $25-35 big three upgrade is not looking so bad after all....

No i have had the big 3 done and my voltage is still low. All those places that were mentioned are useless besides EA and MG they seem to be my only hope. ****ing Denso alts i had this problem with my hondas.

Does anyone have a 2004 Durango or a newer dodge because the newer Dodge's use 2 units a Denso and a Bosch and i am trying to find out if these are interchangeable. Because I can get a 200 amp bosch from EA but i have a denso. I called Dodge(local and main branch) and they could not tell me if they were interchangeable somebody help. Or should i say **** it and get a secondary alt and batt just for my amps?

i have personally met dom.... he knows his ish..... and a nice guy to just spend an hour or so talkin to me about how an alt works... made my head hurt after a while

Dom has a group buy going right now... 30% is ALOT of money. It's in the general audio forum. He can also make you a 2nd alt bracket (he's making me one).

I've talked to Dom quite a bit lately. He's a really good guy IMO.
