A: Armand, you can just replace the front 1/2 of the alternator housing.
Undo the nut holding the pulley on and take apart the screws holding the
case together. The front comes off and the wiring, winding, etc all stays
behind except maybe the front bearing.

RATS................

I'm not havin a good AMC day !

I've been away from the tools for too long. I forgot
the first rule of thumb that should have been automatic
but since I hung up my tool belt and started pushing
pencils, I forgot that you don't overstress alloy parts,
they just can't take it. I broke the ear off my 35 year old
Motorola alternator. Yes it had been on the car unmolested
since December of 1969. I had to loosen it to get the belt
off and a bolt broke. I drilled a hole in the bolt and stuck
the easy out in it, and as the easy out went in further to bite
the bolt it broke off the ear, damn that was stupid, and my
trusty old Motorola is now worthless, oh well guess I'll have
to figure out how to install that 76 GM style alternator, or
maybe the 79 alternator I have both. Does any one know of
a website that gives step by step instruction on how to swap
in the later alternators into a 1970 car?

Thanks,


Armand
