today i upgraded my alternator to a higher amp alternator. I put a 1998 grand cherokee 5.2l alternator in, which is a 136amp and stock is 117amp. took a little grinding to the bracket on the motor but not a bad upgrade to do. i bought the alternator from murrays auto parts for 154.99 and its a bosch with a lifetime warranty. I also put in a new Optima red top battery.

I couldnt find any type of right up on this for a 2001 cherokee so i figured i would just go for it.

i believe both of you guys have a lot less work to do then i did. I think your alternator has the right connector for the upgraded alternator. ill get pics up very soon

What would be the MAX ampage a stock alternator could be rebuild at....150 plus?

im not sure but the thing i liked about this upgrade is that it has a lifetime free replacement warranty. Idk if you can even get a warranty on a rebuilt alternator.

HOalternators or zena alternators.

220 Amps at just 2,000 RPM's enough for ya?

mean green makes a bad *** alternator but its a little bit pricey and not much warranty. United auto parts can make you a 300amp alternator but no warranty.

Cool, I need to do this
At 300 Amps = 3600 watts ! Cool, you wouldnt have to worry about having nuff power, I could power my house.
