Last week I had to get a tow after my alternator was overcharging and voltage spiked something and shut me down while driving downhill. It was code for secondary fuel pump voltage too high. p0232-24 fuel pump A secondary circuit high. General signal failure signal stays high.
It would start, and...
Get the brass one. Much more durable. I found it on Amazon. Don't buy the cheapest though ( even though most are the same).
There were reports of the really cheap ones being too small in diameter and not sealing.
Piece may be floating around, but going to be hard to find it. Is it possible it...
Thanks for the diagrams LT!
So for those that following along

I shoulda known it was that dang rebuilt alternator....well I kinda thought it was. With this misadventure I...
2010 died on way to work. Plugged gap in and showed p0232-24 fuel pump A secondary circuit high. General signal failure signal stays high.
So lost pump 2....while waiting on tow I can hear chewing....
Friggin mice!
The sellers wifes lr4 came with rack, ladder, compo's and sliders. She is at stock height so the sliders were an annoyance to them as they would hit their shins getting in and out. Hence the sale.
Those are lucky 8's proud rhinos. Easy install.
Regular sockets, impact gun for final tightening, metal trim tool, screwdriver, flashlight and jack used. Oh, and an m8 1.25 tap to chase the threads.
Those are the ones that that cover tank and compressor. They have others like in the video that...
Thanks for being the light in the dark Rover.
I reset BMS, which ended spikes. But didn't charge at all, ran on battery.
Fuseable link looked good.
I stopped to pick up rock sliders, and the seller and I installed as them he wanted the plastic trim. After telling him my tale of woe, he took BMS...
Had alternator die 3.5 hours into a 5 hour trip.
Found one at local napa(Chineseium). Bought and installed in napa parking lot, plus new battery.
Watching voltage it's not steady, and sometimes spikes over 15.1 and BMS cuts it off and I get a split second flicker on all lights.
Headlights also...
Only about 7500mi on rear Zimmerman. Fronts are some lower quality PO put on (really flaky iron) that I'm waiting until they wobble or wear out. I'll keep everyone posted.
If you just need the pulley, you can get a littens one from advance auto for $20 rather than the near $200 for the whole tensioner. I had a post a month or two ago about it, with part number.
Gotcha, ive looked at some universal swing outs before. The Terra Firma are too pricy for me as well ( not all d4 guys got money to burn ).
Guessing the bumper cutouts could be a little more discreet, assuming you didnt pull the cover off to mount?
Appreciate the ingenuity as im mounting...
Nice work.
Would it be difficult to modify the hinge so the large bolt portion curved forward?
Relocating it to the fat corner part of the bumper? Like the terrafirma ones. Also is the hinge greasable, or could a greasenipple be added?
Then most of that bracket could be under the bumper cover...
Same experience as above. Same motivation as well. Added walnut blasting intake valves ( had stuff already) and radiator as it showed a tiny pinhole ( pea size white calcification on outer edge).
My brothers rivian spent three weeks at dealer for a flat tire. Thats after a tow from outside Philadelphia ( their home) to Baltimore. Which is the closest service center for him. Rivian paid the tow there....he had to cover return trip. Not impressed.
Cooling system, sc coupler, all fluids and filters and suspension refresh are on the horizon. If you are paying to have service done, it might be better to buy new. Unless you are comfortable paying what would surpass trade in on maintenance above. Personally id pay $5-7k and be good to go for...
