Quest Alt Swap

[Alpine Spirit]

OK what all models does it work with? Pathfinder, Frontier, Hardbody, Xterra?

Is it a straight bolt in?

Does the pulley work with all models?

As far as I know all the plugs are the same. Ben just put one on his 4 cylinder HB with some extra pieces from the local hardware store. Both my trucks have them on the vg30's. Mine, just like Ben's, required a pulley change being we are vbelts. Mine also required a little modding to the alternator case in order to use the factory brackets. The tensioner also needs a little tweaking.

The Xterra runs the serpentine like the quest. I wouldn't be surprised if it would bolt right on.

xterra ran vbelts?? the xterra engine i picked up for the pathfinder has regular belts lol.

typo, the Xterra, Fronty, etc...run serpentine belts.

I helped Ben put the alt. on his 4 cylinder a few weekend back and besides having to cut and reweld the alt. bracket and change a few other minor things (belt length, bolt length and sanding down the spacer behind the pully) it wasn't all that bad to do.

Exactly why I don't have time for the chat anymore....:thebirdman:

Here is what we did to the flat alt bracket to make it work with quest Aternator.
