Powermaster 8247 120 Amp Alternator 01-04 6.6L GM Duramax LB7
Description
Overview
It goes without saying, but the alternator is the lifeline to keeping your Duramax on the road. With all of the aftermarket electrical upgrades you can make, such as lighting, winch, and stereo, the factory alternator is severely tasked and not always able to deliver a consistent charge. Ensure your system maintains proper voltage by upgrading to this replacement alternator from Powermaster.

How it works
After checkout, we route your vehicle info and part SKU to verified installation shops near you. Local installers review the job and submit competitive bids; you pick the shop you want based on price, reviews, and availability. Your name and email stay private until you select an installer.
Pricing
You pay for the bid from your preferred shop. The full amount is shown before you confirm — installers cannot add charges without your written consent. Payments are processed securely by Stripe.
Your privacy
During bidding, shops see only your service ZIP code, vehicle year/make/model, and the part SKU — not your name, email, or address. Only the shop you select receives your contact details after payment. We never sell your personal information.

About Powermaster Performance Starters and Alternators
The two most important electrical components of your truck are the starter and the alternator. One gets it running, and the other keeps it running. Over time, these can begin to degrade and require replacement, and when that time comes, make sure to give your truck a big upgrade by going with the trusted name of Powermaster. These are designed as a direct replacement for a simple installation, but deliver big gains in power so you'll realize easier starts and better charging, no matter how many 12 volt accessories you're running.
