CS144 Alternator + Big 3 Wiring Upgrade
Hey My 3rd Gen 4runner Sisters and Brothers from another mother,
@infamousRNR (aka Sean) and I have another Sic Mod for Y'all. If you're getting into wheeling or overlanding and you're starting to add more things that cause a draw on your electrical charging system, there's a couple mods you might want to consider. One is the CS144 Alternator Upgrade and the other is the Big 3 wiring Upgrade. And, lucky for you, this video shows you how to accomplish both. Sic Mods and Happy Wrenching! <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fs1RotngY-Q" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

Nice vid guys!
Question about the CS144, I've read at least one post that recommends sourcing an alternator for a 1995 Cadillac DeVille with heated windshield. While searching I find a few different models specifying with and without heated windshield. With Attachment 395849 Without Attachment 395850 Why not just any CS144 140 AMP alternator? EDIT I ordered a New ACDelco Gold 335-1050 from Amazon. Cheaper than a rebuild at any partstore. EDIT 2 Found this, as an option? HIGH OUTPUT 140 AMP 1995-2004 TACOMA 3.4L 4 RUNNER ALTERNATOR CS144 Alternator + Big 3 Wiring Upgrade |
The one with a heated windshield has a higher amp rating due to the extra draw from the heater.

I used the heated windshield version on 96Red be using the same on the 01 when I get to it.

New DB Electrical ADR0211-250 Alternator For Cadillac Brougham 91 92 CS144 HO
This is a 250a CS144 HO. As long as it’s clocked the same this looks good. I’ll search for this specific Cadillac….. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Here's another option

So why go to CS144 Alternator when you have a Denso one?
Not sure if anyone is seeing this thread. But I have a question..
So I am trying to understand why would one go to the Delco CS144 140 Amp Alternator when Denso has a 150 Amp alternator that I would think would be a bolt on version? The only minor thing on that would be that it will need a 3-to-4 pin alternator adapter.. But other than that IIRC you will not need to put any shims or washers to put it on the trucks. Now if you really want lots of amps I would think going to a higher output CS144 makes sense.. but for the most part that might be overkill...dont you think? |
