So i ordered a remaned alternator and its making a squeal that gets louder with acceleration. They sent me a new one and same problem! I called them to let them know and they said they tried a new company for the pullys and that could be the problem. It sounds like a bad baring to me but I'm no expert. By now im getting tired of changeing the alternator!

So the Question is could putting my stock pully on one of these alternator's fix the problem??

Thanks!

if they are the same size try it. just make sure the belt lines up properly and the pulley doesn't contact any part of the housing.

Watch the route of the belt and see if the alternator is aligned correctly with the other pulleys, you could have problems with them not lining up.
