This be my Alternator.
I know reman's are junk. I was able to swap out this alternator in 10 minutes, but I am a bit out of practice as this one has lasted 9 years.
Due to the AC compressor not being aligned well enough, and not willing to expend any more effort in attempting to do so, I cannot use the two V belts, as the outside belt is too loose and will develop god awful harmonics at certain rpms.
So I use one V belt, a little tighter than it likely should be to prevent slippage when damp with a depleted battery, which no doubt contributed to bearing demise.
Well, that and regularly being maxed out.
