OEX Alternator 12V 70A Lucas Style LXA120
The OEX Alternator LXA120 is a 12V, 70A unit in Lucas style, supplied as a new alternator with an internal regulator. It suits Lucas applications and is listed with a twin leg alternator mount, 83mm inside mounting legs, and a 10mm pivot hole diameter.
This alternator carries a 73mm outside diameter pulley with an A section pulley profile and a 9mm adjusting hole diameter. The unit is identified with pin code IR25 and includes a W terminal for tacho output, which is a useful check when matching to the existing electrical setup.
As a new rotating electrical part, the OEX LXA120 is listed at 4.3kg and is backed by a 3 year passenger / 1 year commercial warranty. For any replacement alternator, the most reliable match is the part number, mounting style, pulley dimensions, and terminal arrangement rather than vehicle model name alone.

Application and Buying Notes
When replacing an alternator, the key checks are the mount style, pulley size, regulator type, and terminal layout. On this OEX unit, the critical identifiers are LXA120, 12V, 70A, twin leg mount, 83mm inside mounting legs, and a 73mm pulley outside diameter.
The internal regulator means it is intended for systems that match that control arrangement. If the existing alternator uses a different regulator setup or a different terminal arrangement, the unit may not be a direct swap even if the vehicle is similar.
The W terminal for tacho output is worth confirming before purchase. If the vehicle uses that signal, the replacement alternator needs to provide the same connection point so the tacho function can remain available.
For physical fit, measure the mounting points on the old alternator and compare the pivot hole diameter of 10mm, the adjusting hole diameter of 9mm, and the 83mm inside mounting legs. Small differences here can stop the unit from sitting correctly on the bracket.
The 70A rating is the electrical output figure supplied for this unit. It should be treated as part of the matching process, along with the Lucas style designation and pin code IR25, rather than the only selection criterion.
If you are cross-checking for a workshop job or fleet repair, keep the old alternator until the replacement is confirmed against the part number, mount configuration, and pulley details. That avoids fitting delays and reduces the chance of ordering the wrong rotating electrical part.
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 LXA120 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.

OEX Alternator 12V 70A Lucas Style. Part number LXA120 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 70. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.
Mount style is Twin Leg. Regulator type is Internal. Pulley configuration is A. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.
For part number LXA120, 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 70 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.
Compatibility note: Confirm compatibility by matching the part number LXA120, Lucas style application, twin leg mount, 83mm inside mounting legs, 10mm pivot hole, 9mm adjusting hole, 73mm pulley diameter, and the W terminal arrangement before purchase.
