OEX Alternator 12V 85A Lucas Style LXA834

The OEX Alternator LXA834 is a new 12V, 85A unit in Lucas style, supplied as an alternator each. It suits Lucas applications and uses an internal regulator, with a twin leg alternator mount, 82mm inside mounting legs, and a 140mm mount centre-to-centre measurement.

Key dimensions to check before ordering include an 8mm pivot hole diameter, M8x1.25 adjusting hole thread, 17mm shaft diameter, and IR130 pin code. The unit weighs 4.64kg and is listed as new, not remanufactured.

OEX positions this alternator range as a quality aftermarket option, with ISO9001 certified factories supporting engineering, testing, and quality control procedures. Warranty cover is listed as 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use, so application confirmation is still important before purchase.

Application and Buying Notes

This alternator is identified by part number LXA834 and is described as a Lucas style 12V 85A unit. If you are replacing an existing alternator, the most useful checks are the mount style, 82mm inside mounting legs, 140mm mount centre-to-centre, 8mm pivot hole, M8x1.25 adjusting hole, and 17mm shaft diameter, as these are the details most likely to affect physical fit.

The internal regulator is another important checkpoint, because it needs to match the vehicle’s charging system arrangement. The IR130 pin code is also listed, which can help when comparing connectors and application details on the existing unit.

Although the fitment list includes machines such as Atlas Copco XAS185, Bobcat V518/C, Caterpillar 216B, Jaguar XJS, JCB 2CX4, and Toro Pro Sneak 360, the correct choice still comes down to confirming the part number and matching the alternator’s mounting and connection details. Always compare the old unit side by side where possible, especially on equipment that may have had multiple charging system variants over its life.

The 85A output rating and 12V system voltage are the main electrical specifications, but they do not override physical fitment. If the original unit differs in shaft size, bracket spacing, or plug arrangement, this alternator may not be the right replacement even if the application name appears similar. Careful checking before ordering is the safest approach.

For commercial use, the warranty is listed as 1 year, while passenger use is listed as 3 years. That warranty detail is useful for expectation setting, but it does not replace the need to verify the alternator against the vehicle or machine already fitted.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number LXA834 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

For part number LXA834, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a alternator in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 and output 85 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include ATLAS COPCO XAS185, ATLAS COPCO XAS185 2009, BOBCAT V518/C, CATERPILLAR 216B, CATERPILLAR 216B 2008, CATERPILLAR 216B 2009. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

The listed warranty is 3yr Passenger 1yr Commercial. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.

Compatibility note: Confirm compatibility by matching part number LXA834, the Lucas style application, and the listed mounting, shaft, and connector details against the unit being replaced before ordering.
