the stud that comes out of the alternator which the power line bolts down to snapped when i was re-tightening it....it wasnt even snug before it snapped off so i couldnt have over torqued it...anyways are these studs replacable at all? any ideas on how i can fix this? TIA

 

Yes you can just place the stud. You may have to take the alternator out to change it though.

 

Soder, or weld it on if ur desperate

 

it wouldnt really bother me to make the connection permanent, but i dont have access to a welder..i can solder it on but it would be pretty difficult, im not sure how i could secure it like that.

taking out the alternator would be the last thing i want to do, i just dont have time or the patients right now.

the nut on the alternator seems to get pretty fawking hot, is this out of the ordinary?

 

i have an extra alternator sitting here if you want the stud off of it. lemme know.
