Re: Amp rating of a Safari's altenator
$1000 to swap out an alternator ,? I would look for a new sparky first ,quite honestly its approx. 30 min job ,a 50amp would be more than enough for most trucks and they can be bought for under 400 .if your in auck you buy the alternator and ill show you how to swap it .
