Toyota Hilux
American Power Systems, Inc. manufactures high output Toyota Hilux alternators and dual alternator bracket kits.
For security and defense applications around the world, the Toyota Hilux is relied upon by governments other organizations around the globe because of the universality of parts, spares and service.
As a security or defense vehicle, Hilux is often up-fitted with armor and special equipment that allows end-users to stay connected, collect information and even perform silent watch activities. All of this equipment adds to the vehicle’s weight and creates current draw that OEM systems cannot meet.
We solve this problem by providing high output Toyota Hilux alternators, dual alternator bracket kits and other solutions to help end-users get the job done while staying safe.
APS works with armoring companies and vehicle up-fitters, including Battelle Memorial Institute’s Armored & Unarmored Commercial Vehicles Program to power up non-standard commercial vehicles.
Defense entities around the world -- including Australian Department of Defence, US Department of Defense and US Special Operations Command – rely on our alternators, dual alternator bracket kits and customized power systems to help protect end-users and enable them to do their jobs.
APS systems provide everything the up-fitter needs to make a vehicle mission capable: to run all on-vehicle equipment, even at idle, without causing damage to the OEM electrical system or batteries, while eliminating the need for heavy banks of batteries and the space claim they require.
