OEX Alternator 12V 65A Mitsubishi Style MXA298

The OEX Alternator MXA298 is a 12V, 65A rotating electrical unit in Mitsubishi style, supplied as a new alternator for each application check. It uses an internal regulator, a 6 groove pulley, and a single leg alternator mount, so the physical dimensions and mounting style matter just as much as the electrical rating when matching the replacement part.

Key measured details include a 63mm pulley outside diameter, 167mm mount centre-to-centre, 51mm mount leg thickness, 9mm pivot hole diameter, M8x1.25 adjusting hole diameter, and a 17 shaft dimension. Those figures are important when confirming the unit will bolt up correctly and align with the existing belt drive and brackets.

OEX states this alternator is made using OE components for fit and function, and that OEX products are sourced from market leading original equipment manufacturers and aftermarket suppliers. It is also backed by a 3 year passenger / 1 year commercial warranty, which gives you a useful reference point when selecting a replacement for a Mitsubishi style 12V charging system.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, match the part number MXA298 and the application style, not just the 12V 65A rating. Alternators with the same output can still differ in regulator type, pulley section, shaft size, and mounting layout, so the 63mm pulley, 6 groove belt drive, and single leg mount need to suit the existing installation.

The mounting dimensions are especially worth checking on this unit: 167mm mount centre-to-centre, 51mm mount leg thickness, 9mm pivot hole diameter, and M8x1.25 adjusting hole diameter. If any of those points differ from the removed alternator or the vehicle bracket arrangement, the part may not line up correctly even if it is described as Mitsubishi style.

This alternator is a new unit with an internal regulator and a 17 shaft dimension, so it is best treated as a direct replacement only when those details match your original part. If the existing alternator uses a different connector, pulley type, or mounting pattern, confirm the application carefully before purchase.

The listed warranty is 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. That warranty detail is useful, but it should not replace fitment checking. The safest approach is to confirm the part number MXA298, the Mitsubishi style application, and the physical measurements against the original unit before fitting.

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 MXA298 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 MXA298, 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 65 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment using part number MXA298, Mitsubishi style application details, and the listed mounting and pulley dimensions before ordering. Do not rely on output rating alone.
