1989 BII 2.9 alternator wiring

[coyotebronco]

50 miles to nearest parts store, I bought a new alternator only to realize there are no plugs on this one. Is there anyway I can cut plugs and wire to this alternator. Help Please!!!!!!

No, not really.
It reads like you got an alternator that would use an external voltage regulator, 1989 BII wiring is for internal voltage regulator(inside alternator)

It would be best to take it back and get the correct alternator.

BUT.............if you can get an external voltage regulator you could wire that up to the new alternator using existing wiring.

Just to be clear if you wire up an alternator without a voltage regulator you will at best blowup the battery, worst case is a blown up battery and a sh!t load of melted wires, and maybe a fire.
An uncontrolled alternator can generate alot of AMPs.
