That would be a site to see, maybe on a Duracrap.

What MY did they start putting 110A alternators in? As far as I know the stock alternators are 130A in '04's. And given that the dual-alternator set-up is still being rated at 260A, I'm guessing the stock, non-extra heavy duty alternators are 130A.

Just talked to my dealer, he said if I don't have snowplow option, it's a 110A. Like bowtiehatr said, the largest oem I can replace it with is 140A for $267 + $75 core charge + $87 (1 hr) install. Hmmm - $429 is getting up there, but if I wanna play, I gotta pay.

Actually, what I'm more interested in learning is when (MY or particular production date)the change occurred. But you do bring up another question. How many different alternators (in terms of rated Amps) is Ford now offering on SD's? And with what package would they come with? All this helps when trying to answer someones question about whether or not their alternator can handle the load of some piece(s) of equipment they're installing . Knowledge is power.

the diesels have always been 110 amps. even in the 7.3s. with the dual setup, the primary is 140 amps and the secondary is 120.

Ah crap! So the specs that Ford publishes in their Body Builders Guides are wrong? I'm getting everything from 95A for a 2000 F-350 w/a 7.3 to 130A for 2001-2004 F-350's.

Will both of these mods work on an '04?
