Greg, 

        Thanks for the update.  It sounds like you made great choices and all worked out.

Keep us posted as to your final decision on the alternator. 

I’m partly responding to thank you for posting the resolution and partly to be sure people see your post.  I didn’t get your original only the one below Dennis’s reply.

I called the local Napa store first light and they had a suitable alternator (their house brand rebuilt unit) at their warehouse. By 11:00AM, their driver dropped it off to me, the truck shop next door swapped the fan/pulley for me (that was not coming off easily with my hand tools), and an hour later I had it installed and on the road.

I’m not a big fan of remanufactured alternators, starters, etc. they ‘should’ be good; but you never know how long something will last that has ‘tested’ parts (vs replaced) or who did the rebuild, or if they had a bad day when rebuilding mine.
