    Default help with alternator???

    Motor 4agze
    computer and accesories are map and cas

    guys i need help with what alternator this is from

    i have been to several wreckers and they are unable to id it, unfortanatly the toyota numbers are no longer readable.

    the main things that are different are it mounts on the exhaust side, and the mounting is 68mm (every other alternator i have measured is 58mm). it also mounts very low right next to the sway bar because i have air con and power steering.

    im 100% it is not a aw11 gze alternator because i have one of them and the plug is different and smaller mounting bracket.

    From an ae92-ae101 4agze (although most likely ae92 as the plug on 101 i think is different).

    Internally the same as older 4age.

    AW11 4agze has the same width bottom as 4age, but aw11 uses an external voltage regulator like 4ac's

    You wont find one at your normal aus wreckers...

    If you need one, just get yours rebuilt. You could always pull it appart and swap the internals with a normal n/a one

    to rebuild it properly will be abit difficult without the right tools.

    most places when they rebuild alternators will replace bearings, machine down the slip rings and fit new brushes/regs

    also they would check the coil windings and shit

    Rebuilding by a pro shouldn't take too long. Ring a few auto electricians and see the average time it takes.

    By the time you have found another *second hand alternator*, your one will be built and last a lot longer than the unknown.

    That said, ttz32 driver might have one, he converted to aw11 alternator bracket setup. His has ~90-100,000km.
