2014 CAT 299D – Alternative alternative

1. #1ozarkag2024-05-20 08:33

   CAT 299D Alternator Alternatives? Looks like my alternator might be going out. After 2 weeks worth of rain, it seems like it is failing to generate any power. I am probably going to take it apart just to make sure something didn’t rust up or fill with water. If that doesn’t work, time for a new one. I was curious if anyone...

   Any chance of some numbers off a tag on the alternator? Or at the least some pictures of it. I know I've been away from the industry for several years but doubt that Cat makes their own alternators. In another post yesterday I talked about needing a replacement alternator for a road sweeper. The sweeper company wanted $1156.00 for an alternator and I got a new not rebuilt one from a local repair shop for $214.29!

   Or give a machine Serial Number to help find the alternator Part Number. Then you can search the interweb for a "will fit" alternative to the OEM part. EDIT: Was the $1000 for a 389-2320 by any chance.?

   I bought this one on Ebay for My 299D2 for $176. Installed and worked great.
