I was over thinking it. I measured everything with the 400a still mounted in the truck and the 200a not installed. They do not align perfectly and I was worried about the rear bracket not sitting flush and side loading the alternator tab. I talked to Steve at RWH and he assured me it all...

The spacer fits perfectly. The problem is that the rear support bracket (pn 12460273 - #4 in the parts diagram) aligns perfectly with the rear alternator mounting tab. I'm seeing exactly what this sketch shows. Dumb question... but is the rear support bracket actually needed when installing a...

Well... I got my 3/4" spacer, 200a rear support bracket (pn 12460273), and the 7/16" bolt, so I thought I was good to go. I pulled the 400a out of my m1165 and tried to install the 200a. I found that even with the 200a rear support bracket installed, that rear support bracket still lines up...

This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you! I somehow misunderstood the need for the 200a bracket, so now things make a lot more sense. Regarding the cables, that was my understanding as well - basically both cables that connect to the rear of the 400a are not needed and get completely...

Thank you. I actually have that exact hoist. I suspect it'll be challenging enough even with the hoist, I can't imagine doing it without some sort of lifting assistance.

Yes, as things currently sit with the 400a installed, the twist support bracket will occupy the same physical location as the rear mounting tab on the 200a. The twist bracket isn't slotted (as best as I can tell with it still installed in the truck), so I don't think there's any adjustment that...

You are correct. I had both of the 200a brackets in my notes and for some reason typed out the wrong (old) one. Thank you for catching that.

Hello all. I'm about to start a 400a to 200a alternator conversion on my 2006 m1165 (sn 241xxx). Through the homework I had done, I thought I had understood that the 200a would work with the existing 400a brackets/mounts/etc, and all I would need is a smaller diameter (7/16") long mounting bolt...
