Hey Guys I'm gonna start making some 24 volt upgrade alt brackets for the a3 as well as 12 volt add on kit for the a3.. I'm gonna start working on them next week.. If anyone has decent picks of the engine bay with any add on kits that might have came on them i would really appreciate you posting them.. Just don't want to miss any variants? I'm also looking for someone that has a 5 ton with a cummins 250 that would be willing to leave it with me for a few days so i can mock up the brackets i would be willing to give them the brackets,alts and any belts needed as well as install them for free.. I have been getting alot of people interested in them but i don't have a truck to make them from..so any help would be great ..Thanks in advance

Terry McClanahan with American Outfitters already makes an upgraded alternator bracket for the A3. I've never seen one, however. I've never had a problem on my A3, but apparently problems with the alternator brackets on A3s are quite common.

ya i have heard of the brackets cracking?I'm not making upgrade brackets.I will be making brackets to put a 27si delco alt in place of the stock alt.. They are more cost effective and easier to find than the stock one plus this will get ride of the cracking bracket problem ..And i will be making a kit to put a 12 volt 10si delco alt on there as well so guys can run 12 volt accesories ...I have looked at the specs on all the different alts out there and the 27 si give the highest amp rating for the price range-Around $115 And the 10si alot of guys already have or can get pretty much anywhere for cheap and there are tons of options as far as amp ratings go.You will be able to install a powermaster or other high output alts with the brackets i will be making
