Title: Alternator
Post by: RGERBER on November 15, 2006, 04:16:26 PM
I have a Shrockworks winch bumper coming, after I install the bumper my next Modification will be Aux. Lighting or a winch, before I can do those two items I know I need a Alternator.

Petroworks as a  105 Amp. GM with bracket, heavy duty wires. Belt ect. everything needed to make the change.

My question is 105 Amps. Enough and how much is the stock Samurai and or Sidekick. I have a 1994 Samurai with a Sidekick 1.6 – 8  valve motor put not sure which Alternator. The 1.6 was in the car when I bought it.

Stock Sidekick alternator is 55A, you can run a winch without a heavier duty alternator but it helps. 105A is more than enough.
