    Holy cow! Who engineered these things?

    I think these alternators are off of hummers. I down loaded the TM from this site for one of the hummers and it has this alternator in it. My mechanic friend thinks it goes to some light or something that is either lit when the alternator is working properly or lit when it's malfunctioning.

    Holy cow! Who engineered these things?

    Well I finally got the big alternator installed. It seems to work. It started to charge the 24 volt system and kept the needle right on the right side of the "green" zone. Head lights where nice and bright. The 12 volt side was registering in the strong zone on my cheap-o battery/charger...

    Holy cow! Who engineered these things?

    That was original plan yesterday. I called one of the industrial belt and pulley places here and they do not sell alternator pulleys. The one's you buy for commercial use are not rated for the RPM's and stuff of the alternator. I tried other places and found out that pulleys are usually...

    Holy cow! Who engineered these things?

    I checked around today and I will have to remove my stock alternator pulley and have it drilled out like Mike did. I will take some pictures as soon as I get it back on.

    Re: RE: Re: RE: Holy cow! Who engineered these things? I am worried the regulator will not work right and over charge the battery. I always worry about anything that I am modifying from it's intended purpose. I always assume thing will fail. That could be a disorder of some kind.

    Holy cow! Who engineered these things?

    Re: RE: Holy cow! Who engineered these things? Well that stinks. I was trying it with the dual voltage pulley. I was hoping the belts would work although I figured they would not. I will be pulling it all apart in a few minutes. :x I already have the 12v battery in place. My biggest...

    Holy cow! Who engineered these things?

    I guess more than anything I am wanting to vent, but it's at least a chance one of you has some advice. When I changed my master cylinder on Bod D. Deuce a few weeks back I kept asking myself, "what bonehead designed this thing with that one impossible bolt next to the frame rail ?" I later...
