Ford will want a left nut for it. I'm sure your auto parts store can get it. They'll probably try to sell you the 110A one. Those places only hire flunky's. LOL

Looked at fordparts.com and they say about $320

The auto parts says $220..

Both depend on which is the right one.. Don't want remanufactured if I can get it

The only place you'll get a new one would be from Ford.

My nephew works for Bosch in Chicago and says the reman tools are better than new because of the strict testing that isn't done on new tools.

The same may be true with alternators.

Yeah but I think alternators are remaned with cheap parts and they don't last..

On Bobbys 97 he went through about 3 or 4.. They were covered under the warranty, but still who wants to be replacing parts every year

I got 11 years out of this one
