Nick Moore Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 What a coincidence, I just changed the A115 alternator on my Herald for a Nippon Denso teeny tiny alternator. If you're upgrading from a dynamo, you'll need a different mounting bracket - the casting that bolts to the block. If you already have an alternator then it should bolt straight in. I also 'upgraded' to an alloy mount, not because of the weight saving but because shiny alloy bits make me unnaturally happy ::) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Garvey Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 Hey Nick - just read your blog update and was just going to e-mail you and check it would fit. Looks like it will so will grab. O'hauled, 45amp and $18 (7 pound).....cheap. Looked denso but $$$ at the moment post quake. Keep well.Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Moore Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Glad the Trumpy survived the quake - how's it coping with the laughingly called 'roads'?If you can find an $18 alternator you should probably buy a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
