Title: Alternator Pieces
Post by: Russ on November 11, 2005, 02:27:21 PM

i just pulled apart my alternator to have it polished and one of the brushes is broken.can you buy just the whole little unit that will slip into place or do i have to buy the brushes themselves to replace them?
does airspeed carry them?
i can post a pic if anydody needs to see a pic of what i'm after
