I didn't....unless there's some other way of holding the internal fan without just hitting it with the impact to tq pulley back up? I found safest way to not bend the blades was to block each one then torque it.

i am not sure if the wires going to the old regulator can be used or not i would use new wires and splices from the alt myself. i just repaired my old alternator harness.

Hack job hooked it up, to make sure it works. It does. Now just need to do it right, which includes getting my gauges back.
