This is the long ear version of the 3G alternator. It was originally installed in a Lincoln Mark VIII, $17.00 from the Pick and Pull. I decided to rebuild it before installing it in my 1983 FSB. Replaced bearings, cleaned up the slip rings, and intalled new brushes and Voltage Regulator.

Parts:
Bearings $10.00
Regulator & brushes $25.00

Though I started with a used alternator, I have since changed it for a new one that was intended for a 93 Mercury Sable.
