    Seems like the bearing on my alternator is going . Is there a recommendation to source a replacement ? I see Scuderia has them for about $700.

    ....... and don't throw the old one away. It can easily be rebuilt and kept as a spare

    FWIW, the only time my car stranded me was when a rebuilt alternator failed.

    For future reference guys, this model will work Toyota land cruiser they are identical. I stripped it cleaned slatted on new regulator had my sparky bench test it, gud to go.
    Has not missed a beat.

    I noticed that too when researching a rebuilt alternator (Toyota compatibility).

    The parts that wear out to cause an alternator to fail are all replaceable.
    Over the past 40 years I have used several rebuilt alternators (I always rebuild mine vs getting an Asian core instead)
    If a rebuilt fails its prop because of the person who put it back together.
