hmmwv and cummins 5.9

[jester3798]

anyone know what alternator pulley and brackets to use to install factory 24v alternator on cummins 5.9 engine?

Why not just go all 12 volt if you have gone this far. Basically all you need is a 12v heater blower and wiper motor now. You can swap all your bulbs to LED s

all my other trucks are 24v so id like to keep the ability to jumpstart, use the 24v tools etc....

I’m going to convert to 12v on my 12v (pun intended) I wonder if the blower and wiper can be rewound for 12v?

Re your question, why not just fab a bracket to hold the 24v alternator?

looks like the 24v alternator from wolverine technologies will work perfectly if anyone is curious

I have a 110amp 24 volt I'm planning on running.

thanks for the link

i havent mounted the alternator yet but here is a pic of the alternator and the motor

Won't the fan and wiper run on 12v, just slower? It isn't like the fan blows strong anyway and with rain-x, you just need the wiper to clear mud.

idk if it would run on 12v, im thinking not very efficiently or without generating a lot of heat in the electrical motor. the alternator i have is wound for 24v and should fit with no issues. sourced that one from wolverine technologies awhile back for my 5ton

Apparently not with your use of punctuation and capitalization.

Site rules ask that you try to post at a 6th grade level with proper capitalization and punctuation.

Also, no expletives, even if xed out.

 

[jester3798]

I am very sorry kind sir. Please accept my utmost apologies for the grievous misuse of capitalization and punctuation. I must truly look like a heathen to all of you refined and dignified gentlemen. I am so very sorry.

Buddy, i'm trying to run a company, deal with paypal messing up my account, being a dad to two kids, etc etc. So if the .6 seconds i find to reply to someone breaking my chops on the way i work on things offends you then i'm truly sorry. I'll find some more time to work on my 6th grade education level.

It astounds me that you would even take the time to comment on something like that, but hey what ever makes you feel good.

 

[jester3798]

Cmon guys, there is no need to bash any one for what they believe. In my eyes this is done. I use this site to learn stuff from some amazingly talented and educated individuals. I also like to share what I have and will do with my military vehicles. I'd like to just keep on topic here and that is putting a 5.9L Cummins in my HMMWV.

And i very rarely drink alcohol, apparently I have a hard time typing sober.

have an awesome weekend everyone

I would love to this engine in a Humvee. They should have done it 30 years ago. 6.2 and 6.5 GM engines suck and are a pain in the ass to work on. Cheers

Cummins came late to the light truck market. Wasn't it around 1989 when their six banger was put into a production light truck, before that just used in tractors and maybe other machinery? Too late for the Humvee which began production in 1985.

That and I am convinced that somebody at the DOD has a brother in law at GM. There is no other way that they used some of this junk so long.
