After load testing my system (testing batteries independently, then charging system), it looks like my alternator is on its way out.
Does anyone have any recommendations for alternators?
Thank you!

I would stick with an OEM alternator.Originally Posted by ddsneversummer

I use the OEM as well.
I don't have a lot of electronics that require the need for a bigger alternator.
Typical interior\exterior lights, 40" light bar, onboard air, and I have replaced it once.

I replaced my OEM unit with the XDP alternator.
The extra power output for charging my camper batteries while driving is excellent.
The black finish is excellent.
A little over 1.5 years of use with no issues.
- Happy to be on the food chain at all.
Thank you all!
I'm weighing the options now.
I know OEM is usually higher build quality; I have trouble spending more for less performance.
I'll post it once I replace it!
I'm with W/S, OE, be a Denso unit. Denso is top-notch stuff.
It's the Delco of Japan but even better quality.
Find Denso on Amazon at reasonable prices.
There are no cores to return, and you can probably install a set of brushes on the stock unit and have a good spare for emergencies.
You can do brushes by just removing the rear plastic cover.
