Posting here to see if anyone has changed their ALTERNATOR BEARINGS?
I have confirmed its the front bearing of the alternator. She (bearing) is basically howling now at this point. This moring I replaced the water pump as that bearing was shot. I guess because the water pump bearing went and released coolant all around in there it seems to have spread the hate to the alternator bearing. Anyways....
If anyone has taken apart an alternator and put only "new bearings" back in the original alternator, please let me know what the part number or bearing dimensions please. Can't seem to find any info except a new alternator, which is a lot more $$. For no reason really.
