Does anyone have actual experience installing this alternator on a 1998 Cherokee XJ (4.0L engine)? Is modification necessary to the alternator or to the mounting bracket?
I have searched and have found threads that indicate modifications are needed on the mounting brackets for earlier years of XJs but nothing specific to a 1998 Cherokee.
I called a Mean Green Vendor this afternoon and asked two questions. The first question was about the wiring connections, and the answer was that the stock wiring connects to the alternator with no changes required. The second question was about the alternator body and the alternator mount, and the answer was that the alternator bolts into the existing mount with no modifications required.
Thanks very much in advance for letting me know if the vendor's statements are correct.
