Thread: Alternator for Land Rover Isuzu

<span style="color:blue">have you compared it to a commodore one of similar vintage.....

(long time ago....bad memory)</span>

I just rebuilt the alternator on my Isuzu, it was a 70 amp from memory and also has the vacum at the rear. Cant remember the brand of the top of my head.....and it's dark and late, so I'll have a look tomorrow for you. Oh and it bolt's straight into the standard mountings.
From memory a new one was quoted at around the nine hundred mark.

Have you considered looked at Jap Import Truck Wreckers? The Isuzu 4BD1 and 4BD1-T are still being made today and have been fitted to NPR trucks for yonks. There would have to be a wrecker about somewhere who has a shelf full of various alternators for NPR's (They come in a range of weight/wheelbase specifications and have different spec alt's for the required enduse)

G'day All, My 1984 110 3.9Isuzu has a standard Hitachi 70 amp alt fitted with the Vacuum pump, so they are out there and incidentally it has never given me any problems cheers Dennis :roll: :wink:

Thanks for that, will look for a Hitachi 70 amp. If came standard then fan belts are also not an issue.

PM Maggot, as he recently renewed his in the Rangie 3.9D with much bigger amps

No need for the PM :wink:

I replaced the 40amp alt on my 4bd1 with a 120amp. Includes vac pump and is a genuine Isuzu part off an NPR. I bought mine brand new but you may be able to source one s/h. I will have to check the model number for you as most of them are 24v now.

It took me months to find the best alt as I have lots power requirements including winch, 1000w inverter, 2 fridges etc.

Not a cheap exercise, was $1100 all told, but well and truely worth it.

Will get the part number and a pic later today.
