Recommendation for best alternator

[Steeda90GT]

So where should I pick up an alternator for my 99 SOHC? I checked out all of the local places and some of them are rebuilt and some claim to be new. Some rebuilt ones carry a lifetime warranty, however I don't feel like changing out alternators every couple of months because it keeps failing, even if they keep replacing it for free.

The best deals are to have small electrical shops rebuild your OEM alternator for MUCH less than purchasing a rebuilt one, or a new one.

I can't tell you how many problems I've had with soo many alternators that weren't OEM.

I am quite pleased with the 200 amp alternator I got from Mr Alternator ( http://www.mralternator.com/ ).

I don't need anything special since my Explorer is 100% stock and will remain that way (I have 3 Mustangs to play with) The Explorer is just my daily driver/beater.

I do however want OEM type reliability (I dont want to have to bring this damn thing back every 6 months) I want to be able to install it once and hopefully get another 115K miles out of it.
