rebuilt alternator

[PyRo]

ok..the alternator is in..its a good thing my bolts
were all rusted to or else it might have come out a
little easier. i'm gonna put the cover on tomorow.
thank you. i bought the car about a month ago and
everything started breaking down on it so i'm gonna be
on this alot. i figure i might as well learn how to do
it myself then spend more than what i paid for the
car. next up is the throwout bearing then the power
steering hoses and then trying to get the instrument
panel to function properly.
