I considered that. Even called four local rebuilders. Nobody seemed interested in helping. Pretty sad. I suppose business must be that good. Once place that is a dedicated alternator rebuilder told me his alternator guy was gone until next week! WTFE! I bench tested it and didn't hear anything and the output was great. Gotta be a bearing somewhere else. Changed the tensioner too and no dice. The search continues.
Got the radiator repaired though. $40. Back on the road now just with that annoying sound. I don't mind taking it to Tellico that way, just not my preference.
