Yanmar 129908-77200 is the 12 V, 80 A alternator with a single groove pulley, two mounting ears and an adjusting arm. It is used on Yanmar 4TNV98 engines. This aftermarket version has the same mounting and electrical connector as the original, so it plugs in and bolts on where the old one came off.
Sold as one unit. Check the number on your old part, or in the parts manual for your machine, before ordering.
