Potential Landy Owner

Landynewby · Apr 19, 2018

Hey everyone, been doing some research on landrovers and I'm thinking of getting one for the summer.

I've inherited 4 alternators from an old storage unit and although I have confirmation that they are for defenders, they all vary, how do I identify whether they are for a certain model? I'll be keeping one as a spare if I get the compatible model so I'm just curious.

You have two sitting there with part numbers and a contact detail.

But nope, no idea on how I might find out, no sir, none at all, oh wait a minute.................... nope, sorry

I'm not that daft mate, I've contacted that company but as the part is 2009 they currently don't have a record of what it's for. The other one is a confirmed Land Rover one but offers very little details online, only details are of an existing ebay listing.

Thanks for the really helpful response though

Just cross match the stamped part numbers against those on sites like Craddocks or Paddocks.

3 are the same design.
Not seen these type on a Landrover.
Was the previous owner of the unit into tractors/diggers/plant
Thanks

30 seconds of duckduckgo and the bottom 3 are potentially YLE10088 matching the Magnettie Marrelli A127, 72 amps for a V8, top one doesn't look anything like any alternator I've seen on a tratter or a series, looks more like a ford tractor alternator.

I thought they were for Cummings?
But not up to date any more on plant engines.
Just confused me why they are shielded on the back.
