Big Screen = 240 amp Alternator?

[Q Tip]

Do all 24-25 Gladiators with the 12.3" screen get the 240 amp alternators stock? Just wondering as my 25 Nighthawk has the 240 amp but no tow package.

Does it have the factory auxiliary switches?
Those also got the larger battery and larger amp alternator if I recall correctly.

Does it show that alternator on the build sheet?

 

[Q Tip]

No auxillary switches and it does show on the build sheet as 240a.

And it does have the 700 crank amp battery.

I just look at the build sheet on my 25 nighthawk and it shows 240 amp as well. No tow package or aux switches.

Well, that right there says it all...........

Part of the Nighthawk package?

Interesting - and nice!

 

[Q Tip]

Yes cool to have....don't know if it is a Nighthawk spec. Thought maybe all 12.3" screen trucks might have the 240a.

I can't judge by mine since it has aux switches, towing package, and is an X package, so it's going to have everything regardless.
You bring up an interesting point.......... I wonder if I have an order guide handy to check out.

Sometimes questions like that lead to a lot of learning.

Found it - standard on 2025 - Sport, Rubicon or Mojave
JL98 is the code for the sport level.

No more smaller alternators. Probably a cost savings bit.

 

[Q Tip]

Well there you go. Good researching.

My 2025 Base Sport has the 240AMP alternator and H7 battery. I suspect they also have higher wattage cooling fans as standard also.

2024+ seems when they really consolidated a lot of this type of stuff. I would imagine it is a cost savings of only inventorying one model part vs. 2-3.

The build sheet on my Nighthawk specs "standard engine cooling" so I'm guessing the fan is not the heavy duty model. Looks like the electrics would support the 850 watt fan though.

It will. I know in 2023 they went to the higher amp fuse array as standard.
