ISO Mopar Alternator 240amp

[BSchanze]

Looking for leads on a new Mopar 240amp alternator for 24-27s.

Part numbers
68429970AA or 68429970AC

Truck is in for warranty work and part is unavailable/back ordered without info. Dealership can't find one in the country. Hoping I get lucky on some info before picking up an aftermarket part not covered under warranty.

Maybe @AllMoparParts.com knows why.

Wonder what changed between 2023 and 2024.

I can go on Rock Auto right now and order a Mopar 240A for my truck (2018-2023 as it is listed) (in stock), but change to a '24 and there is almost nothing.

Noticed that as well - OEM is also in stock for 2023. Aftermarket for 24+ is very limited. Not sure what they changed but probably has to do with the screen/electronics updates if I had to guess.

Mine failed, along with the bearing and shredded the belt. It's covered under warranty but...

New vehicles can be painful sometimes.

We buy them because of the security blanket of 'reliability' and a warranty, only to find out in the first few years when the warranty is good there tends to be a chronic shortage of parts and you can't get the truck fixed or wait forever to do it...

Thread update:

@AllMoparParts.com - thanks Benny this helpful to get the dealership I was working with to move a little faster on a decision. Unfortunately, pretty much all of the alternators were reserved for customers.

The part is back ordered with no ETA and I would have been #158 in an order bank - I was able to work with my dealership to fully covered under warranty an aftermarket alternator, serpentine belt, and labor. SO all and all it worked out even though it took 8 days to figure this out...

I have a feeling this will be a pretty big issue for people going forward until these are back in stock. Aftermarket alternators have skyrocketed in price because of this issue.

Thats great

Interestingly enough when I checked today I see about 200 incoming and no backorders but I am not sure if Mopar is hiding them, We have seen them do this recently.
