Why do my alternators suck so bad?

[rseifert]

I was just wondering what any of you guys do for alternators. What is the deal w/ Ford's, I have gone through 2 in the past few years! Within months they start sounding like coffee grinders and they eventually wanna just fall all apart! Thanks

the stock altenators are not effecient for what we need... get a bigger 3g alt. it is becuase they are always running at near capacity. just think of running your car at full throttle all the time, it will wear out much faster.
