the one thats in the car rattles and sounds real bad.
I need another one, I gave the old one to an auto electrician in penrith and he told me to fix it the cost would be $620
No way am i paying that.
where can i get another in Sydney ,Australia
if not i will get one from the USA.

I don't know about prices in Australia but $620 seems like a MAJOR rip off. It's a simple install to do your self, here's a website I've used before. Since you didn't specify your year or make this is just the link to all alternators available for the liberty. I imagine this is from the U.S. so shipping might be rough, still a lot cheaper than $620.

Jeep Liberty Alternator's

Go with an alternator from a renegade KJ if you can, the higher amp rating will help you out with all those lights you Aussies run on your jeeps;)

X2, I'd order one from that site, or somewhere else and install it yourself, even with the overseas shipping it's a far sight from 600 bucks

I heard that the alternator in the kj will only put out the amount of amps that the computer will allow it to. So you would also need a renegade computer module in order for that to work. Otherwise you would not see any more amps.
