Application and Buying Notes
Confirm the existing alternator part number first. The key identifier here is 23700AB051, and that should be matched with the vehicle application and the removed unit wherever possible. The listing also identifies Mitsubishi as the suited unit make, so the replacement should be checked against your current alternator rather than assumed from the vehicle alone.
The mounting arrangement matters just as much as the electrical specification. This alternator uses a twin leg mount, 130mm centre-to-centre spacing, 57mm inside mounting legs, and an 8mm adjusting hole diameter. If any of those dimensions differ from the unit in the vehicle, the part may not install correctly even if the 12V rating looks similar.
The pulley specification is also worth checking carefully. A 6 groove pulley with a 52mm outside diameter needs to match the belt setup already fitted to the vehicle. If the belt type, pulley section, or offset on the existing alternator is different, the part should be verified before fitting.
The unit is fitted with an internal regulator, so it is best suited to vehicles that use that style of charging system. If the original alternator uses a different regulator arrangement, the replacement should be confirmed against the vehicle’s charging system layout and the part number on the old unit.
Weight can help with comparison when you have the old unit on hand. At 5.36kg, this alternator can be weighed and compared with the removed unit as one more check, but the part number, mount spacing, pulley section, and regulator type should remain the main points of reference.
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 23700AB051 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.
