Title: alternator parts??
Post by: Hammy on October 30, 2008, 07:08:38 pm

Where is the best place for buying voltage regulators (preferably adjustable) and rebuild stuff? Is the dealer brutally priced?

Thanks

No, it was just a small shop in Owen Sound, Ont. They deal in mostly import electrical parts. J&B Auto Electric (519) 370-2005.

 Brody was the fellows name that I dealt with. They weren't able to get me an adjustable regulator, but I got a preset (14.5V) which he claims is upgraded from the previous ones. Myself, I have never seen a preset regulator on any Bosch alternator (A2 style) ever charge at more than 13.5V. $18 was the charge for this. He had to order it, it comes in Monday. I will keep you posted as to what it will charge at once installed.
