It is indeed the appropriate kit for the application - Despite its prevalence, the kit does not contain the 'fusible link' mentioned. You are referring to the capacitor that is inside the alternator (next to the rectifier bridge). That component has a very low failure rate, and it serves only as a noise suppressor. In other words, if your radio speakers are not "whining," the capacitor is working.

The parts are quick and easy to install. Bearings at the rear are not available. It's possible to select from a number of brushes. I had already replaced my old rectifier trio, but I purchased the complete kit thinking I would replace everything while I had it apart. However, I was still unable to get any output with the new components. Five times I must have taken it apart and put it back together before I just put the old regulator back in with the new rectifier and Even though I got the rectifier and the front bearing for a relatively low price (compared to a new alternator), I am not sure if I would It would be best if you tested everything first and only bought what you needed.
It is possible to fix many alternator problems with this kit if you know how to use a voltmeter. Having burned out armature or field winds, or main diodes, the alternator cannot be repaired with this machine. It is likely that you can service an alternator if you can use a volt-ohm meter.

The front bearing is cheap, there is no brush holder, no plastic screw insulators, and there are six different brushes for a two brush setup (I guess that could be a plus), as well as two different brush spring lengths. Despite its simplicity and simplicity, it doesn't look very impressive. With the addition of a quality bearing for the rear support, a quality bearing for the front, two plastic screw insulators, and the brush holder, it could be an excellent Although you will probably be able to get by with this kit, it could be.
This kit was ordered after the alternator on my tractor stopped charging the battery. After checking out the wiring, I ordered the I found the instructions to be pretty good and the installation process was simple. Upon cleaning my alternator, I found that it was full of dirt and dust, which is probably the reason it failed in the first place, so I got it cleaned out, and now I plan on blowing compressed air into it to avoid it accumulating again in the future. Despite my best efforts, I couldn't easily remove the bearing from the wheel, but it did not look bad, so I opted not to force it out and left the old one in place. In spite of the low price, I was able to find an inexpensive rebuild kit that solved my problem without having to purchase.
Having been a mechanic for over 30 years, I knew it was time to replace my old alternator on my 1986 Chevy when it could only punch It costs $65 to $70 to replace them The number of 100 is now 100 I chose this rebuild kit for just under $14 since I was going to be out of the country for several days. It took me about 45 minutes to break down the machine, clean it up, and put her back together. She immediately started putting out 14 volts when she fired it up. The app worked like a charm and saved me tons of money.
I love what you do. Disassembling is very easy take pictures as you go, it makes a lot of sense to me to disassemble things that don't work often and making them work again. I will be disassembling my starter next time I look at your site.
Since I have been wrenching for over 30 years (hobby), this is to my knowledge my first alternator rebuild. Although I did view some online videos I would like to say that it worked well.
