Hooked up with CUCV Electric today and they were very helpful! Said they would send another Regulator. Really appreciate them working with me on this problem. Said that I should clean and reterminate Hot Leads to Alternators on Firewall. Could be route of problem? Finished top rail and part...

I agree Warthog! Thanks for input. Just purchased kit from CUCV Electric. Installed parts with great care? Will contact seller tomorrow and see if he will hook me up with another?:cookoo:

Well here are my initail findings. Way out of balance. At least they are being charged!:cookoo: Front Battery @ Idle 13vdc - run 15.85vdc Rear Battery @ Idle 14.74vdc - run 14.80vdc

Feedback at Gen 1 & 2 lights are not effected by accs - heater, headlamps etc. I think balance is the key here with my situation. Have an imbalance somewhere? Going in deep. Will report back as more is found. All being said. I am operational. [thumbzup]

cpf240, yes they both iluminate during startup procedures. Then I agree once reved up they should not be lit. Mine excites then stays lit? Gen 1 only. Drove about 14 miles tonight and is still acting up? Do not think she will strand me though. Volt meter is in green and output is perfect...

Well, thought the saga was over. Rebuilt port side Alternator with complete kit from CUCV Electric. Very comprehensive kit by the way. Thanks for lead guys. At idle the Gen 1 light is steady and bright. It is putting out perfectly though according to output test with VOM? Soon as you...

Yes mudman I know this. Thanks for making sure. I have it 5 x 5. Proceeding with caution.[thumbzup]

Does anyone know resistance tolerances for Rotor and Stator on CUCV Alternators? While I am in there. Might as well make sure they OHM out? Just a thought. DMLII sends...

Glad you like it. Have learned much. Kinda gone full circle. As Mudman stated earlier. Went to CUCV Electric and purchased Rebuild Kit. Should have gone that direction initially. Live and learn. Jarheads gotta do it their way. Still hope to get an off shelf for giggles. Local parts guy...

I agree Warthog. Its in the Alternator right? Thats where I am headed.

cucv1833, Gen 1 is lit up big-time and volt meter is in over-charge zone when at cruising speeds? Hope to have behind me this weekend? Performed diagnostics as stated earlier in thread. All seemed to be fine. Will report back once Alternator replaced.

cucv1833, what does kit include? Lets face it the existing Alternators are probably original. Experience with motors tells me the Rotors are probably pretty worn out. Commutators should be way down by now. Afraid kit will not consist of major components? Just small electrical components not...

Thank you Wathog. Loud and clear!

According to CUCV faq Autozone DL7157 is a direct replacement. Should have gone to Autozone!

Warning! Do not purchase a 27SI from USA Industries. They do not have a clue what is needed for a CUCV. There are two terminal landings missing from back of Alternator? Must assume civilian 27Si does not have what we need? Must be missing information to positively ID unit required. Suppose...

Thanks for all your timely responses! Calling manufacturer in morning to verify mounting design and electrical cofiguration is identical on type 100? If yes, will replace type 200 with 100. Meanwhile keep original and rebuild later when I have more time. DMLII sends....

Need to replace port side alternator. Gather from those in the know that direct replacement is Delco 27SI. What I did not know is there are two types 100 & 200. Type 200 being 100 amp and 100 being 80 amp. Question for those in the know. Can I substitute 100 amp type 200 for type 100 80...
