engine for my Durango..... scratch that, Dakota resurrection instead

[eldubb440]

so, to recap...... back in April; I bought a pos, rusty Durango with 140K, good motor/trans and a ton of parts. My buddy around the corner (another local native) has an outdoor lift; I had him swap the trans into my Durango...... It's alive! I love this vehicle ...... I went to Tractor supply

alternator on the Dakota took a dump, and a rear window regulator on the Durango broke.........

I had both in stock

as Willie Nelson says, "on the road again.........."

That has to be the easiest alternator to change! I replaced mine last year.
