  • Not everything is the alternators' fault, but why does it get blamed so often? Because it's easy to blame due to misunderstanding its job, that's why.
    Sit back, get educated, and even laugh a little. We've all been there at one time or another.
    As always, we thank you for business and confidence in purchasing our products.

    I can’t believe the old jumper cables on the alternator didn’t work. Always does the trick for me 😂

      Pretty much. In 8 plus years we have NEVER.... EVER sent a DOA alternator. EVER. If your statement is what you took away from this video, i certainly wish you the best luck in life.

      @@mechmanalternators I call cap on that. Not a single bad out of box? Not a single one? Not a chance in hell that’s true. Every mechanical and electrical device has the potential of going bad. This is like ford saying not a single vehicle we sold never had a defect. It’s simple not possible unless you only sold 100 units in 8 years.

      @@BrianWaller-qe7gr We test every single alternator 3 times on the dyno. Initial test, overload/heated test, re-test to spec load. After that its continuity checked/verified, build sheet is signed off and then off to packaging.
      These aren't your 40-dollar ULTIMA, CARQUEST, DURALAST parts store alternators.
      The only way these would be DOA would be if they were dropped, hooked up backwards or positive arced off the case with a ground already present. We know exactly what to look for on the alternator if any of those have been done.

    Tony and mechman is definitely top knotch when it comes to customer service. I been debating on which size and which company to go with and I for sure know I'll be purchasing my 320A alternator from mechman for my 5th gen Ram 1500. Customer service is a big deal along with high quality products and mechman has both those box's checked for sure.

    I picked up a whine after switching alt to a mechman alt. The issue was that when I reconnected the battery cables after installing terminals weren't all the way tight. After snugging up the battery cables whine was gone. Volt guage accurate is great tip. I have one on radio one on sniper and one on dash they all read a bit different

    I don't know what type of comments RUclipsrs make but I do know how stupid can be and I apologize for all of us who greatly appreciate the videos and our quality alternators. It really is sad to see these topnotch channels feel the need to address negative comments at the beginning of your videos. There is a shitload of us who care and want you to know we feel your frustration. Keep on trucking brother

    Hi I purchased a 270amp alternator from mechman alternator for my 95 F350 7.5L and everything was working fine and next thing I know it was sparking never used the warranty for it I’ve reach out to the company and they told me they don’t have parts for it to fix it they told me to buy a new one I purchased a G and they said to buy a S alternator do you know why that is I’m confused cause I paid over $598 for it any info you provide would be highly appreciated thanks

    • @tonyb022377
      @tonyb022377 Год назад

      It's because the G series Ford alternators are highly out dated.

    So when I receive my 370 amp I ordered from down for sound I should hook it up in my 2015 Silverado 1500 exactly like you did in the one video? Should I use more grounds with it if I'm planning on upgrading more audio someday? Should I fuse the positive wire if I'm scared even though I'm going to be using 0 gauge ofc wire?

      We can agree to that somewhat, but the shop or expert needs to be vetted as reputable, not just the "cheapest".
      Many times we have the budget mindset customers contact us and long story short they wished they'd just spent the extra money upfront to have it done the first time, the last time, the only time. :(

      With costs of everything going up we still try to offer a reasonably priced product with 0 deduction in quality.
      We'll most likely never be as cheap as the "guy in the garage" or the 10million different color alternator guy, but we also can offer more confidence in a purchase, warranty and reliability.
