Hi the alternator of my 2001 cherokee sport died last week and I went to buy a replacement at my local parts shop but they did not have them in stock and I was wondering if I can use an alternator from a different vehicle jeep or different car to replace mine with out too mouch modifications it would be better if it is a bolt on install.
If some minor mods are needed to be done please help with installation and modding instructions. (if you have pictures it will be the best)

Thanks a lot guys

 

i have one off a 98 ill sell it to you

 

I think you can get them from the grand cherokees and use those. Minor modifications. Good time to upgrade the alternator.

 

I always use the auto parts store to x-reference to see what parts will work with different years,yours just says 2001 and thats it,does not list any othere veichles,kinda strange but they are more often than not correct.

 

Hi thanks for your advise, I have read articles about using a 98 grand cherokee alternator tu upgrade to a 136amp alternator instead of the 117amp orginal one this will benefit me if this can be done to mine 2001 jeep cherokee sport, if this can be done please advise.

Thanks
