  • Contact seller for proper fitment
Works great on my truck and seems of very good quality on the workmanship. I do recommend contacting the seller to ensure proper fitment. Mine arrived with the clocking off by one set of holes. Opening the case to reclock voids the warranty which is understandable as not everyone can rechecked an alternator without damaging it and they are only protecting their interests. I had to go ahead and do mine because of time issues and couldn't wait for another. Over the years I have problems done a couple hundred of these on the rechecked so it was a non- issue for me. I did have several message exchanges with the company and they are more than happy to assist in anyway they can to make sure you get the right product. So I would not just take Amazon's AI program as gospel on fitment. Take a couple extra minutes and call or email them (they are very quick to respond to email) and they will make sure you get the right product ... show more

  • Great upgrade for a 7.3 !
Will circle back on longevity. Purchased april 2025. Seems to charge at 13.6 most days and cooler days 14.0V Worked on my 2002 7.3 , added to washers to the base and had no clearance issues. Direct bolt on and plug in. Stock 7.3s have a 100 amp alternator which barely keeps up.

  • Powerstroke 6.0 needed this...
I HIGHLY recommend you get a DC clamp style multi meter (about $30) first to use on your working stock alternator to see the draw of your glow plugs and the amount of time they fire off. Mine were drawing the exact high end of the stock alternator at 110 amps. The problem with that alternator was that it was producing an over voltage environment after the glow plugs went off, thus lighting my "battery" light intermittently. Meaning it would shut off the alternator for a moment, then back on, then off. This alternator is rated at 180 amps. It topped out at 140 amps during glow plug start up and I can't get any higher than 140 with the other power demands. WHO CARES?!! It's more than $50 less than the cheapest rebuild at Napa or O'Reilly's. I'm going with heck of a deal. But if you NEED 180 amps, get the tester once you get it to verify. Maybe they offer a 210 amp?? And that's the actual 180. Also, plan on upgrading your alternator wire. I had some 1/0 lying around and a "Blue sea" style fuse for the battery terminal. You DON'T want to use the existing wire as it incorporates a parallel "fuseable link". The links are basically two smaller wires. In my case 12 gauge. Those will pop with more amps. ... show more
