Bigger Alternator.

(1/3) > >>

Sharpshooter:
Right all.

I have a 1984 110, with a 2.5 nad in. It also has PAS.

I need a bigger alternator, so was wondering. What is the biggest one i can fit, without having to do many mods. I have been told the one from the 200tdi will fit. But dont want to buy one, and find out the hard way, it wont.

All help greatly appreciated. :D

Isnt that one a flat belt type?

mmgemini:
Most alternators are interchangeable.
If the lugs are in the wrong place, just undo the three bolts that hold the alternator body together and twist the front one way and the back the other to line the lugs up.

The only other thing is you might need to change the terminals on the wires at the back of the alternator. Plug to ring connector.

A third thing to look for is the "W" terminal. You can the fit a rev counter.

You can also change from a multi grooved pulley to a "V" belt pulley.
