It may be a different connector for the rodeo since it was newer (04) but installation is identical (0.9 hours). And I know for certain we share n alternator with the trooper and acura SLX

Call and tell them not to. Say your VX has AIDS and they won't touch it.

except the transmission is kicking into safe mode 1st gear and i cant drive it on the highway and not risking it doing that to me after i already towed it to there man i wish i would have looked here before

I don't think our transmissions have a safe mode... I've never heard of a limp home mode either, so either your transmission is slipping or your mode selection switch is non functional. Can anyone else shed light on the tranny safe mode bit?
Super VXer
Transmission actually will lock into 3rd gear in certain situations. Happens when the regulator in the alternator goes so system voltage is too high
Removing the serpentine belt will let you run off the battery directly but you can't go far, like that and you have no power steering, headlights or cooling fan.

Just replaced my alt in the VX...took less than a half hour. Very easy.
