Question Alternator question

My alternator isn't charging anymore, what's involved in rebuilding one? Is it difficult to do? Or should I go buy one? Money is a little tight right now.

Try a rebuild kit for your alt.. The one I used a couple of years ago was called "Victory Lap", I bought it at a local auto parts store for around $20. It's a pretty simple job to do maybe a couple or three hours of your time. Cheper than a new alternator.

If money is tight, i'd hate to see you spend it in the wrong area.
you confirmed that it is in fact the alt and not the regulater?
