Scott Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Got mine on the bench just now and I can't quite grasp how to get it apart. I've removed the 3 nuts from the top to remove the outer cover, I've removed the 4 main nuts on the casing itself and I have removed the top charging part via the 6 or so tiny screws. I've hit it gently with a mallet and it will rotate a tiny bit (clearance for the studs) but it won't come apart. Am I meant to do something with the bearings first? Not really sure how to get access to it. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephendjb Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 All the screws are on the back you have to remove the voltage regulator & something else, it's a while since I did it & can't find the thread I found to do with it. If you haven't had a better reply by the time I get home I'll have a look at my spare & it should jog my memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm left with is the casing and both ends of the bar sticking out either end. I can't for the life of me split the casing. I think I'm just going to buy a new alternator to be honest. It's the front seal that's missing and there's loads of crap gotten into it. I was going to see if I could get a new seal and give it a good clean but for the price of the ones on ebay I'm thinking it might not be worth the hassle lol. It would be good to know how to take it apart properly if you have got the information though. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Knock the rotor out of the front of the casing after taking the pulley off. Undo all the bolted tags for the stator windings first. I do loads of them and have a rebuilt one for sale on the shelf... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure I'm going to need one. I've put up a wanted ad. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
