How
to covert a 93-94 Range Rover Classic into using the Custom Built 105/140AMP
Rover Connection Alternator for 87-92 RRCs
One
of preferred customers (Frank
T. Sands) was able to intall the 140A alternator to his 1994 Range
Rover with some modifications. He documented how he did and would like
to share his experiences and information. We appreciate his efforts
and contribution to our Range Rover Classic society.

| I started
by disconnecting the battery, and the 3 electrical wires going
to the alternator. I then removed the MAF and air cleaner so I
had more room to access the alternator. After that I loosened
the alternator belt and cut it off since I wouldn't be using it
again. Make sure to get the adjusting bar out of the way as well.
The next step was to remove the power steering pump pulley. I
was able to get the 3 nuts holding the pulley loose by using two
13MM sockets and two socket wrenches. I got the pulley off without
having to loosen the power steering belt at all. Then remove the
lower 13MM bolt securing the alternator to the lower mount and
remove it. |

| Before
installing the new pulley make sure to use your original spacer
if your new pulley didn't come with one. The spacer off my 94RRC
was the same as the spacer off of an 87-92RRC. Then I simply slid
the power steering belt over the new 87-92 RRC pulley and got
it lined up with the 3 studs and after a little work I got it
to slide right on. |
|
|
| Now to install
the new alternator I tapped the rear spacer out so the inside
edge of the rear mount was flush. To get the alignment dead on
I had to use one washer between the alternator and the front of
the alternator mount. Your RRC my be slightly different so you
might need to install it first and mess around with it in order
to get it lined up properly. Install the lower 13MM bolt and don't
tighten it yet. |
|
|
| Install
your new 87-92 alternator belt and adjust it. Tighten all alternator
mounting bolts including the lower bolt. Secure the main cable
to the alternator using a 10MM socket. Then cut and strip the
brown and white wires and install the new wire connectors. Connect
the brown wire from the main harness (Battery Light) to the brown
wire coming from the alternator. Now do the same for the white
wire coming from the main harness (Tach) and connect it to the
grey wire coming from the alternator. Re-install your MAF and
air cleaner and reconnect the battery and you're done. |
