I need to quickly find a source for a larger (i.e. higher current)
alternator for a 2007 Toyota Land Cruiser. Engine info: V6 24 valve
GX.R 4500 EFI. This vehicle was made/sold in the UAE.

Thanks.

Hi Tom,

How did you figure out that this was a Toyota newsgroup? Try using
those same skills to find a Toyota car dealer and ask their parts
department for one.

Go to an auto parts store and ask them for one.

Go to a auto salvage yard and ask them for one.

Check on e-bay.

Oh hell, there's almost no end of ways to get an alternator.

Are people really this dumb?

Oh, wait....you didn't really want to find out where to buy an
alternator, did you? You just wanted to talk about why you needed a
bigger one.

Why do you need a larger alternator? Have you checked with your local
Toyota dealer to see if the alternator from a V8 Land Cruiser would fit?

Hi Ray,

Thanks for the response.

We have some specialized electronic equipment that we want to install
in some 2007 V6 Toyota Land Cruisers, which requires a larger
alternator. Ideally, we would like to have 250-Amp-rated units.

This is for an extremely worthy cause, and not for profit. I posted
here just to try to cover all bases, and with the hope that someone
might already have the needed information.

I just need a quick and good answer for this. But of course I have
also been pursuing many other avenues, simultaneously. So anyone
without positive suggestions toward the stated goal need not post.
