Alternator for Brumby URGENT

Post by ian059 » Fri Jun 19, 2009 8:10 pm

Hey all. Does anyone around Brisbane (preferably north, even up to sunshinecoast) have an alternator for a standard 1800 Brumby?

Had one die on my daughters car tonight and would like to fix it tomorrow (so she doesn't have to borrow my car again).

I will pickup with C.O.D. for a reasonable price.

If no one has one, how much would I expect to pay at the wreckers?

Thanks
IanC

G'day Ian!

Sorry to hear about your daughter's alternator - hope it wasn't at a critical time like driving at night...

I think any early subaru alternator will do the job, just double check the resistor thing - some are in built and some may not be... The L's alternator should fit without a problem... Could be a good time to upgrade.

You could also look at getting it rebuilt - we had ours rebuilt on the WB statesman in under a day! The car had never run better! Any auto electrician should be able to do this for a reasonable price, then you'll know it'll be good for a long time ;)

Cheers

Prolly too late now but I use L series alternators, most will fit easy. I pay $30 to 50 bucks

Thanks for the comments. I had a mobile auto sparky come to my home. $150 for a BRAND NEW alternator and $50 to fit it. Should be good for a loooooong time now.
