Hello All. Quick question. My alternator died this week and I need a replacement. Should I just go the local Autozone/Track Auto and pick up a remanufactured one or should I go to the dealer and shell out the money for a Stock one. Is it worth the difference in price? Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. I looked into the Autozone ones, they got Duralast, Valucraft, and AC-Delco. AC-Delco is the only one I really have used before, does anyone have experience with the other two? Thanks.

Doesn't matter which brand, I'd recommend going with the one with the longest/best warranty. I got mine at Pep Boys with lifetime warranty for about $70 on my old '91.
