Need new alternator (1992 with 1400k)

[Andy69]

The one that came off is a Magneti Marelli 54022458 A127-55.  I’ve located a few that might work but if anyone has already done the leg work and has a source or a part number I’d sure appreciate it.

Check for an alternator repair shop.

Try looking for a 55A Lucas A127 and replacements for the A127 that have the same mounting and pulley as yours.

 

You also could use it as an opportunity to put a modern smaller/lighter denso style one on it  but you'd have to work out mounting.
