Which Kubota Alternator??
J90rdn - 28/5/20 at 10:45 PM
Looking for a lightweight Denso/Kubota alternator. Not much second hand on eBay atm, so looking like it might need to be new. It's going on a
Zetec blacktop, and I already have an old style Raceline alternator bracket like this
I've noticed 2 on eBay from the sale seller. 1 is a 2 pin and 1 is a 3 pin. Can someone please confirm they are the correct type alternators,
whether they will fit the bracket I have, and if I need a 2 or 3 pin (I'm hopeless with electrics)?
3 pin for £80 delivered

Starterman on here is probably the best choise for sourcing what you need. He was very helpful with mine.

I second starterman, it will come with the correct ribbed pulley etc on my silvertop i just needed to space it out a bit to line up with the bottom
pulley, but my bracket is different, so yours may fit straight on

Hi. Can you provide or PM me details please? Will it be the 2 or 3 pin model, which make and model, weight, and will it fit that alternator bracket.
Many thanks

If you want to measure the distance between the lugs on your bracket I'm sure I can find you an alternative if you want.

You can have 2 or 3 pin and I have no idea if it will fit that bracket. I've no idea what size the bracket is. It will be a Denso copy unit as
they all are. No idea how much it weighs, because there is nothing smaller or lighter so weight doesn't really matter.

Whats the difference between the 2 and 3 pin?
starterman - 29/5/20 at 06:45 PM
The 2 pin is ignition and light feed
The 3 pin comes in Dummy, Ignition and light or Sense, Ignition and light, or com, ignition and light or Phase, ignition and light.
The choice is yours but choose the 2 pin, its easier to wire.

OK thanks - 2 pin it is, I need it as easy as possible.
If you U2U me payment details I'll get the money across to you.
starterman - 29/5/20 at 07:04 PM
U2U me your address and email address and I'll send an invoice. Obviously I won't be able to send the unit until Monday, but I will send it
by TNT.
What pulley would you like fitted?
J90rdn - 29/5/20 at 07:10 PM
Done. The ribbed pulley please, to match the Zetec crank pulley.
starterman - 29/5/20 at 07:13 PM
Consider it done
