</font><font color="blue" class="small">( Well, bit the bullet and ordered the upgraded alternator. Right now my 2200 is hard pressed to keep the lights, heater and wiper going. Hopefully the new alternator will take care of that.)</font>
I ran everything I had for a while yesterday after finishing the install and it dimmed some at idle but picked right up with a bit of throttle. I don't have a clamp on ammeter so I couldn't measure what it puts out but I ran my heater on full, 2 55 watt halogens, 4 way flashers, factory head lights, and windshield wiper so I would guess a load into the mid to high 20's.

I don't know what you mean by sleeve. I've attached a picture of the pivot bolt before removing the dymo. You won't know without removing this bolt and looking at casting whether you need to drill or not. The kit won't even mention it. If you have a spacer between the block and your current charging unit then you may already have the upgraded alternator? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
