Went and bought a new alternator last night...100$ brand new w/ lifetime warranty.So new plugs, plug wires, starter, alternator, and called about a regulator and said they would have me one at the shop by 9:30am for 30$. I think the only damn thing left to replace on the truck is the A/C compressor, and it quit kicking on just before I dropped it off to get bagged So I will probably be buying one of those when I get the truck back it looks like.

Makes me so damn frustrated when shit breaks on my rides......but I guess I should be lucky , since the truck is paid off. I could be making a car payment every month and fixing shit going wrong .

The regulator should be built into the alternator.
I think?

The alternator went out in both of my vehicles within a week of each other. Used for the van $50 Dora got her's rebuilt for $80.
