So as I was in San Diego picking up parts for my front end rebuild that I'm gonna do with my uncle and grandfather(wants to do it himself bit the radiation for the brain cancer makes him tire easy, former semi-truck mechanic) I picked up control arms and had an extra $130 in savings to use for my next trip. I went to head home this morning when my battery gauge went down and the light went off. I pulled into the Pepboys in Santee, CA and had a $20 electrical test done and my alternator was dead
. Bought a lifetime warrenty alternator and waited for granpa to get a ride w/ his tools since he can't drive. total spent= 140+20=160=30 bucks in the hole and no more front end rebuild savings
. Im quite PISSED at this piece of shit truck. couldnt the alternater have gone in phoenix where it is more convenient?
