Well yesterday arvo while out shooting I heard a familiar noise, a whine coming from under the bonnet! Another dead alternator! Replaced the factory one with a rebuilt unit from bansheebuzz a few years and maybe 50k ks ago. Didn't really have the cash to do it ended up getting a 130 amp unit from repco. Now sits on a nice healthy 14v no matter how hard I run the stereo! Also started upgrading the wiring, ran a length of 2b&s from the alt up the the fuse box. Just have to order a nice big anl fuse holder to become the new alt 150amp fuse.ImageImageImageImage

Hey guys,
I just got my custom dual sub boxes in the post, installed them behind the back seats today, but cant get the back seat hooks back into the loops, is there a trick or a small mod to the hook i could do to get them back on?

I've found Allied Bearings to be a good place for bits like that.

I wonder if it's the same mob, the ebay store is allied auto online. Might be worth sending them a message to ask what brand of bearings they use in their kits.

I don't know how I missed this thread, this is a sweet build. Pity about your alternator troubles.
