Default 3G Alternator Conversion Question
Quick question on the conversion. PA makes a part 9902
What can I use instead of this as it seems rather expensive?
Basically, it is the 4ga wire, connectors and a fuse link.

3g alt
4awg to desired length
and you need the connectors off the 3g alt so you can splice the stock wiring harness to make it work. easy conversion. i have one. i did it for around 60 dollars.

Thanks. I got the 3g harness but some posts talk about a fusable link.
The PA part 9902 has a fusable link.
