Reassembly

Alternator Reassembly







1. Push the brushes in, then insert a pin or drill bit (about 1.8 mm diameter) to hold them there.
2. Heat the rear bearing seat in the rear housing as described in quarter panel. After heating, continue immediately with assembling before the rear bearing seat cools completely.







3. Put the rear housing/stator assembly and drive-end housing/rotor assembly together, tighten the four through bolts and pull out the pin.
4. After assembling the alternator, turn the pulley by hand to make sure the rotor rotates smoothly and without noise.
