Application and Buying Notes

Before buying, match the part number AXA985 and confirm the alternator style is Autolite with a pad mount layout. The key dimensions provided here are the 175mm mount centre to centre, 55mm mount leg thickness, and 10 / 14mm mount hole diameter, so these measurements should be compared with the original unit rather than relying on appearance alone.

The electrical rating is 12V at 105A, so this alternator should be chosen for vehicles that are meant to use that charging specification. The pulley is a 6 groove design with a 53mm outside diameter, which makes pulley alignment and belt match important. If the belt profile or groove count differs from the vehicle's existing setup, the part should not be assumed to suit.

This alternator is listed as new and weighs 4.86kg. OEX notes sourcing from original equipment manufacturers and aftermarket suppliers, with ISO9001 certified factory support for engineering, testing and quality control procedures. Those details are useful for comparison, but the practical check still comes back to the vehicle application, mounting dimensions, pulley type and part number.

If the vehicle is a Ford Fiesta, the supplied fitment information points to Fiesta applications including 2007, 2008 and 2009. Even where that model name appears in the fitment data, the safest approach is still to confirm the alternator on the vehicle against AXA985, the Autolite-style mounting pattern, and the pulley and connector details before purchase.

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 AXA985 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 a alternator in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 and output 105 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment using part number AXA985, Autolite-style mounting, the 12V 105A rating, and the listed dimensions before ordering.
