M818 Leece-Neville Alternator

[GreenMachines]

I am in need of an alternator for an M818/250 Cummins. I found one said to be off an M151 and it looks the same by the picture. Does anyone know if the alternators are the same for both vehicles?

the pulley would be the only difference.

Your M818 would have had a 60 Amp unit as stock. Make sure that's what the one from the M151 is.

Thanks for the input. I think I will take a gamble and buy it. I was a little nervous the information this guy is giving me is sketchy but the picture he showed me lookes just like my Leece-Neville. Again thanks. Joe

Lance thanks for the input, I will try and ask the guy selling the alternator. I am a little hesitant, his information is sketchy but the picture he showed me looks just like a Leece-Neville. I will try to find out if he know the amp output, but thanks again and I think I will take a gamble and buy it. $75 plus $50 to ship it and he says it was tested good. THANKS

Keep in mind that a Leece Neville alt runs hotter " in heat" than a delco unit and has a much shorter life span as well. Personal/business experience.
I have been looking in to mounting a 27-Si delco alt on a 5 ton " nhc-250.
More volts, amps "200 amps" and a longer life since its a brush-less alt.
