Default Where to get a new alternator for a 00 SS?

Thanks no one around here seems to carry one except the dealer and they want an arm and leg for one. I would prefer a refurbished or remanufactrued one.

I bought the truck 5.3 one from valvegod@aol.com and it fits fine but I couldn't reuse the smallest alt bolt which he told me... And the two others are adequate.

Stock www.gmpartsdirect.com (shipping from these guys is outrageously high) or www.paceparts.com

If you want one with more amperage (140 or 170) then www.alternatorparts.com

Nothing to modify.

Alt is held in by 3 bolts.

I only reused the two big ones.

If it's rebuildable you might could save some bucks by going that route. Usually they can tell you pretty quick if it will be worth it.
