Slowly but surely, there are more and more products being developed for the TracKick IFS platform. 

Perhaps it is time for someone to create an aftermarket alternator bracket for the TracKick...

it's been done but I don't recall specifically where I saw it... a simple bracket that lets you mount a common GM 90-amp alternator

Trail Tough sells a braket for the Trackick that uses a GM alt.
