Awesome find DPT Mate!
Completely nuffy forgot about ‘Baxters’ [emoji106][emoji106]
They are our yard mechanics go to for truck alternators, honestly never knew they also stocked our smaller needed...

Rowan Bebbington in Chiltern Vic is a winding genius. This guy saved my arse for free one Sunday a few years ago when my roadbike blew a regulator/rectifier 350km from home. Sheer luck that our...

The art of armature winders are diminishing exponentially I'm afraid.

Used to be a tiny place just off Elizabeth St, Mebourne which re-wound alternators - no idea if they are still there.

Have seen a place in Ballarat which I think does similar.

dpetersen Could try calling this mob in Alice to see what they say? https://kcautoelectrics.com.au/services There are several other Auto Sparkies in town too, but if you are still out at Wartarrka...

My only honest concern these days Cuppa Mate is trying to find a decent “Old School” repairer armature sparky, almost non existent now?
Bearings are a concern too for a further 300,000km, not sure...

Maybe take the alternator to an old fashioned auto sparky. It may not need much to sort it for another 300K.

It may have been circa $550 but almost positive it was under $600 for the Hitachi OEM 80amp-ish which still more than suits our tourers old 80L Waeco & 26L Engel freezer so far. If we can get another...

Our older 2001 TD42T one also died at approximately 350,000km too mate, replaced it with an OEM for around $500ish I thought? Are the 2006 TD42Ti really $2,300, I thought they’d be the same...

Assuming the throttle actuator servo is capable of 100% pull (as jff45 mentioned) then you will need to check for play/excess slack in the servo linkage.

A proportion of Cruise Control setups out...

I'd say it's luck of the draw. The one I mentioned above still perfectly fine..
But another one in my current patrol cooked 2 years ago ... The corner of the battery closest to turbo went all...

Putting it back on without the fan is a Bucket load easier too.

here is an image i grabbed off ebay.

See the 4 holes in the fan are around the outside front of the Viscous assembly. if you can get your hand in and crack those you will make some space. If not...

No, you need to take the fan off first though will make it easier. small ratchet spanner from the water pump side will get this done, then it will be easy to work out.

Happy to call past yours one arvo mate, I'm working in the west ATM so most arvos go home though GB. mine develops 2000nm I believe, have always tried to nip up the nuts after tightening by hand but...
