I saw this tip on another alternator install. If buying a re-manufactured alternator and your OEM alternator has noisy bearing problem only, transfer OEM voltage regulator to re-man alternator. Re-man uses cheap voltage regulator which will fail early.
Bro I’m stuck … do you have to take the fan off to remove the alternator out of the car ?? I’ve tried to slide it under the cooling hoses but still hard to take the alternator out.
I did not. Try pulling it up and over the coolant hose but I did not have to remove my electric fan. when you pull it up you need to rotate it at an angle. I'm sure it would be much easier if you remove the fan.
@@davidhoward2481 Most of it's the same but you're really gonna have to Jack the engine up To get that alternator out. There is a video somewhere on RU-vid but it's hard to find
@@DanWheeler9000 I got the top two torx bolts out - super difficult due to their angle, can only get a wrench on horizontally and very limited movement. The bottom two I’ll need to come from underneath… I’ll post a few pictures and some notes when I get them out.
