you might be able to get a rebuild kit for it which usually includes new brushes,bearings,and a new regulator.i just dont know if they are available for this particular alternator.

A couple of years ago, I lost the internal voltage regulator in my alternator (wasn't my current truck). The voltage regulator kit from the dealer was more than an aftermarket alternator. If you replace the voltage regulator alone, how much longer will it be before another part in it fails (bearing, brushes, etc). I would go ahead and replace the whole unit, unless you can get an entire rebuild kit like gotfu suggested.
