Alternator Again!!?!?

[MdPhoenix]

If anyone remembers, I was having issues about 7 months ago with my 96 and the alternator. I had a local shop rebuild mine for me. It tested fine on the bench, but in the truck, it didn't work. They finally took the truck in for a diag and found out they had put a bad stator in the alternator.

Fast forward to now...

I have the rear wheel speed sensor issu (RrAbs and Brake), but NOW, I've got a Check Engine light. AND, when I get above 2700 RPM, the battery and 4x4 light come on.

Is this the Alt again?

Chances of the probably of it being an alternator issue - 99%

Don't even bother with another rebuild pn your current one, either get yourself a new (remanufactored) OEM alt or a BOSCH alt - I gave the part# of my Bosch alternator on this website under one of the threads about alternator issues within the last 2 months I believe.

Otherwise, let me know if you need the Bosch part#, and I will look that up again when I get home.

I put my Bosch in almost 2yrs ago, hasn't skipped a beat since.

I just recently found that number. I guess I'll have to buy another one. My wife's gonna kill me. Two alt's in less than a year. She's gonna make me get rid of the truck.

Thanks man.


EDIT: Just thought of something. You have a 97. I have a 96. Same alt?

You know I'm not 100% positive, but I am 95% positive that it is. Look on your drivers door jamb, was your truck in fact built in 96 or built in 95.5?

In 95, they redesigned a few things and labeled those trucks as 95.5yrs, some parts could be of the actual 95 yr or they could be the 96yr.

There are also two different alternators listed for the '96 model year 3.2L V6. One for early-96 and one for late-96.
