sps1989 Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I just traded a friend of mine for a mechman 270 amp alternator for my truck. I did not expect it to be so beefy. Way to go mechman. P.s. installed pics later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MECHMAN Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 Nice. That's a good upgrade over the stock unit for sure. Quote 1-888-MECHMAN www.Mechman.com [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sps1989 Posted March 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 This may be a dumb question but what is the extra bolt for? Isn't the back for power? Is it an extra ground or something el se? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacobB89 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 The one on the back is power and he one on the case is a ground def use it.

MECHMAN Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 ^^ Correct. Use them both. Connect your OEM wiring AND 1/0 cables directly from the alternator to the primary battery using the lugs provided. Improperly sized lugs can cause heat damage to the rectifier. Do not ground it to the engine, chassis or anything other than the battery negative. Quote 1-888-MECHMAN www.Mechman.com [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
