Great job there! I'm currenly replacing both bearings on an alternator a lot like yours if not the same....I root caused an annoying sound to those bearings...but now I dunno...Anyways, my question to you if I may is what is the purpose of that little washer you replaced in front of one of them bearinngs? I mean, I don't have it new and wonder if that was the source of the annoying sound at start up....would it be ok not to place it at all? I could always reuse the old one anyhow... Cheers!

Very informative! 36,000 on my 2018 grampas lilprissypoo 2.7l. Toyotaco! I Drive fields and to coast monthly. Still pristine. Greasing and lubing my self after stealership neglect. 85.00 every 5 months for oil, filter and glance. Down to 14 mpg! Sheesh bowwinkle. Never changed air filter after rodents. Gahaa! Soot in exhaust pipe with their 0w20! I took charge. Lucas gas clean, intake clean, filter change. 5w30 full syn. PuroBOSS oil filter. Slowly going up to 17.5 mpg and now a running gear/ trans lube refresh! Hoping for 19 mpg again! At 67 yrs, I thot I could retire, but those kidderz are green pea and not maint minded! I mite grunt and moan, but my 32,000 investment will give me a lifetime of safe and sane transportation!!!!!!!

that little "wing" that squished out of one side indicate a poor wuality tool and bad crimp. it will also snag and cut through heat shrink and ruins the look of the crimp.. that drives me crazy.. at least rotate the tool 90 degrees and crimp again to flatten the wing out.

Great video bud! I did notice a leftover screw on the bench tho. JK. 😆 How much will I generally spend for all the parts to do a complete rebuild like this? Is it a kit you buy? And how long does it take generally, about 3 hours? These questions will determine if it's worth it to me to spend the time to rebuild one myself. And what is the most common problem as to why an alternator even "goes out"? Is it the brushes? or can it be the rectifier or the regulator? Don't those need to be tested to find out if that's the actual reason it croaked?

@@WeekendWrenchTurner thanks for the input.. i had a cornershop put in a new bearing a couple of years ago and there has been a slight knock when you jiggle the wheel at 12 and 6... a very small knock (maybe a mm or 2) but I am in the process of redoing it now that i have a 20-ton HF press without plates... so i wonder if this cornerShop installed the bearing backWards is why there has been a consistent knock ... the dealer told me it was because they re-used the hub and did not put a brand new 200$ to 300$ new hub in with the new OEM supplied bearing.. IDK!

I don't think a new hub is at all necessary, but it could be they torched it out rather than pressed it out and damaged the hub. I hope for your sake that is not the case.

I was able to get the bearing off using two long pairs of needle nose pliers. I pried up between the cooling fins so as not to damage them. I sort of hit on the pliers like I was trying to pop the bearing off and it worked after about 8 slams on the plier handles. Two long screwdrivers could also work as pry bars and pop it off being careful not to damage anything. There is room under the bearing to try a puller but the one I have wouldn't work.
