It uses an internal regulator and is listed as an alternator type excl. vacuum pump, which is an important check when matching the unit to the vehicle application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pulley is 8 groove with a 62mm outside diameter, and the unit is specified as clockwise rotation. Mounting details recorded for this alternator include a single leg alternator mount, 56mm mount leg thickness, 156mm mount centre-to-centre, and 11mm pivot and adjusting hole diameters. Those dimensions matter when comparing against the removed unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBosch lists this alternator with a 200A charge current, 12 month warranty, and a weight of 7.72kg. It is manufactured in China and described as using premium quality bearings, non-recycled copper, and regulators designed for the vehicle application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause alternator fitment depends on the exact charging system layout, pulley alignment, and mount style, the part number 1986A00955 and the listed mounting measurements should be checked carefully before purchase. The correct belt type and pulley arrangement also need to match the vehicle setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBosch alternator, 12V 200A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart No. 1986A00955\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal regulator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 groove pulley, 62mm outside diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClockwise rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle leg alternator mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower rating: 200A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage: 12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternator type: excl. vacuum pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount leg thickness: 56mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount centre-to-centre: 156mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePivot hole diameter: 11mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjusting hole diameter: 11mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePulley section: 8 groove\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment data provided: JOHN DEERE SERIES 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment data provided: JOHN DEERE SERIES 8 2011\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfirm the alternator type is excl. vacuum pump before ordering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck the 8 groove pulley, 62mm pulley outside diameter, and clockwise rotation against the removed unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerify the single leg mount, 156mm mount centre-to-centre, and 11mm pivot and adjusting holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication and Buying Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen replacing a 12V 200A alternator, the safest comparison points are the part number 1986A00955, the mount style, and the pulley details. This unit is listed with a single leg alternator mount, single pivoted lever fastening type, and a 56mm mount leg thickness, so it should only be considered where those details line up with the original alternator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pulley setup is just as important as the electrical rating. This Bosch unit uses an 8 groove pulley with a 62mm outside diameter and clockwise rotation. If the belt type, groove count, or rotation does not match, the alternator may not install or operate correctly in the vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe listed 200A charge current is a key specification, but it should be matched to the vehicle’s original charging system requirements rather than used as the only selection guide. The note to consider V-Belt\/V-Ribbed Belt related repairs is also worth taking seriously, because worn belt components can affect charging system performance and belt life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with any replacement alternator, inspect the removed unit and compare the mounting holes, pulley alignment, and regulator type before fitting. The internal regulator and excl. vacuum pump design are important details that can rule a part in or out quickly, especially when working from a vehicle application that has more than one charging system variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the vehicle has already had alternator work done, confirm the physical match rather than relying on appearance alone. Differences in mount centre-to-centre measurement, hole diameter, or pulley offset can be enough to make a part unsuitable even when the electrical rating looks correct.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number 1986A00955 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type ALTERNATOR, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty 12 Months, Mount Leg Thickness 56mm, Pivot Hole Diameter 11, Pulley Outside Diameter 62mm, Regulator Type Internal, Voltage 12, Mount Cnt to Cnt 156mm, Fastening Type Single pivoted lever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional published details for cross-checking include Recommended additional repairs V-Belt\/V-Ribbed Belt, Packaging width 20, Manufactured in China, Product Group 2 ALTERNATORS, Part No. 1986A00955, Brand BOSCH, Description Bosch Alternator 12V 200A, Adjusting Hole Diameter 11, Pin Code IR189.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBosch Alternator 12V 200A.
