Hey NOVAX5 - I haven't purchased a replacement alternator yet. O'Reillys has the best price I've found, but you have to consider the cost to ship your core back to them (if you aren't located near one of their strores, like I). Depending on where you have to ship to, it could eat up more than half the core charge you paid up front.

I'm considering purchasing a NAPA premium remanufactured alternator (with lifetime warranty). The cost is about $70 more than O'Reillys, but I'm a little concerned about getting what you you pay for.

Anyone have any experience with NAPA alternators?


Thanks.
