I hate to sound ungrateful but how come some just did'nt say "the two alts are run in series". It took me two days to recognize this, but now I do. Anyone have a spare alt hanging around or have line on a good price somewhere? Thanks.

So the drivers side could be any GM alt (that fits). The passnger side HAS to be isolated ground?

Yes, only one alt. How would I do that, I thought you had to have a floating ground alt? If thats the case, I'll hit the junk yard and look for a good one there. Thanks

Thank you for all the responces so far. I dont know which alt I have, it was in the back seat. I might just convert to 12v because the glow plug relay is missing too. I have the instuctions for converting but are there any tips I should know before starting? Thank you.

Hello, new member here. I have a 84' m1009. Bodys great only 49k but has other issues. I'll post each as one as I get ready to fix them, if I need help. First question I have regards 12v/24v. I was thinking of keeping it 24/12v for now and later just running all 12 volt. My problem is...
