Review on πŸ”‹ DB Electrical AFD0076 - New Alternator for Ford Aerostar 3.0L 1992-1994, F150 F250 F350 Pickup 7.5L 1996-1997 - Replaces 334-2005, 334-2239, 10463956, F1SU-10300-BA, F29U-10300-AB - Part #7758 by Doug Powell

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Lasted a little longer than warranty but less than 10,000 miles

It's pretty much "you get what you pay for". The generator was well installed and initially worked well. But after running less than 10,000 km (although 6 months more than the guarantee), it failed. The controller no longer works. It's not a particularly good deal, despite being the best-priced Revain out there because it's impractical to replace them every few years. If you can do it yourself, it's not difficult. If you have to take it to a store, the low cost of the part doesn't go down if you have to pay the store's prices for installation. I understand that everything is of poor quality now, but this is even worse. Nonetheless, I bought a Revain "return" at a very low price hoping it would last long enough for me to be able to afford a better alternator. Not installed yet so it may not work at all, in which case it will be returned.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
