Check Mike Focke's web site for a DIY altenator write-up

I recently had to replace my altenator. His guide proved to be excellent. I went to my local parts store: O'reillys and got one for $150-ish. It is a very tight fit and takes some fiddling to get the fitting just right (be patient and try every angle). But it eventually comes out / goes back in. This is also a great time to replace the drive belt too.
