    Now what's so hard about making a video like this . This guy in a 2 min video answered all my questions. I have been searching for a few hours now and he nailed it on the head. I bought a a gm ls high output alt from a guy who project went bust so I got a brand new js alts 370 for 300 but on my other vehicle it was plug and play no harness that's a v6 3.5 chevy malibu. This time it had this harness I didn't want to fuck up a 500 dollar alternator before I got use it thanks for ur help and info awesome BTW this 1 didn't have the manufacturer instructions in the box

    I have a DC 170A alternator that I installed on my 02 Silverado w/ 5.3. Stock was a 105A alternator so it has a 3 pin connection on it. The DC has a 4 pin conection and us making a Whirring sound now when I drive but that's the only issue I'm having with it. Do I need to change the harness to a 4 pin if so how would I do this. Please advise any help from anyone would be appreciated and thanks for a awesome tutorial JS 👍

    I have a 2003 Avalanche 1500 and just went through this. If you are getting "SBB" like i was, the P goes to the (SBA) supplemental brake assist pump. should be the blue wire on your pigtail. The 250 amp alternator from JS only had 2 hairpins in a 4 pin plug F & L, The stock alternator is a 3 hairpin 4 pin plug F, L, & P. S is not used on the factory harness.
