A very quick video from Dev and I on removing and installing the alternator on a 2011 Wrangler Sport Unlimited. The process takes roughly 15-30mins for someone knowing what they’re doing….and not more than 45mins for someone NOT knowing what they’re doing.
The tools list is simple, as seen in the video. My battery had a 10mm bolt, so snag a 10mm wrench if yours is the same. That’s the only tool I didn’t mention in the video.
My on-dash volt meter is from Super Chips. Coolest diagnostic and display meter, I’m telling ya!
Good luck, and don’t let an easy-fix alternator be the reason you’re walking home in the middle of the night. Well, you could always Uber me to save the walk, but you know what I mean! Lol!

Your the man bro
Hey man we have the same Jeep. What is the brand of your rocker switch display you have? I am looking to put one in my Jeep. My alternator is whining so I am going to follow your video to change it out.
Just wanted to say thanks for posting. Just replaced son's alternator and belt. Thanks for the guide!
Thank you for you help! I got it in, but my Jeep won’t turn over. I'm guessing the old alternator drained the battery. Regardless, I feel great about my new learned skill of installing an alternator!
YouTube university has been teaching me well, great job doing the super simple and quick explanation, straight to the point. That’s the YouTube professor I’m talkin about!! Good shit brotha
Nice video. I just wanted to make sure it was as easy as it looked and I didn't miss anything. I appreciate the walk through.
Looks easy! I was going to take it to a shop until I watched this. I'm no mechanic by a long shot, but I can do this. Thanks.
All i have to say is THANK YOU! I only spent $170 on the new alternator, took me 4 hrs to do because I have ZERO knowledge on fixing jeeps and i didn't want to mess anything up. I followed everything to the T and my jeep started back up! thank you thank you thank you!
3.8 Jeeps are probably the best/easiest to work on and find parts for anywhere in the US.
Just started on mine! Great video!
THE best Instruction video for this application! Thank you SIR! I just removed mine and waiting for the new one to arrive. SF
Awesome instructional video! Helped big time, thank you!
Take Off that nice ☮️

pep boys wanted to charge me 450$ in labor alone to install spark plugs coil pack and wires so i did it right in front of the shop in front of their service department the guys were laughing at me 45 minutes later i was done and drove away i took my time and saved my self 450$
Im cranking on the fucking tensioner bolt maybe i should look it up man i feel dumb. Thank you!

Dev…@UberJeepAZ Where did you get that digital readout
Great work! My Jeep is sitting at a local gas station waiting for me to get to it at lunch today. I appreciate the help!

Thanks for the video. Well explained and shown. Are you running any upgrades, like winch, lights, etc.? Just wondering what Amp alternator you went with.
