So if you have basic mechanical skill you can feel confident you can do this and save a ton of money.

I used a reman alternator from Eagle electric because it was cheap and close by so I could pick it up. Paid $235 and got back $50 for the core so total was $185.

EAGLE ELECTRIC items - Get great deals on ALTERNATORS, STARTERS items on eBay Stores!

Everything is great after 2 months with the rebuilt alternator.
