    Like I said….A2 and above….you have an ECV, that’s “above” the A2.

    Rev B Spindle Nut?

    You determine what you have by the serial number of the truck, they made ECV and REV’s in A1’s….anything above 300k is a REV.

    200 amp generator / regulator that works periodically...

    It’s clear in the pic that the AC and IGN wires have been spliced…I would verify the connections are intact. if you have an over running pulley, make sure it’s also operating correctly

    200amp alternator not charging

    if the pulley is free wheeling in both direction, yes…the first course of action it to replace the pulley assy and TS from there.
