I'm trying to find a generator for my '67 BJ8. No luck at the parts suppliers.
Too late for a rebuild: a heads up for others, the belt started to chirp and I ignored it as the noise went away when driving...this was an early warning that the generator bearings were wearing and it wasn't turning properly. After a long highway drive I pulled off the road and as I slowed and the highway noise no longer masked it I heard an ungodly screaming. Evidently I drove about 100 miles with the thing partly seized and put it beyond rebuild territory. Sharing in case this happens to anyone else.
Any one have a spare generator? I'd prefer to stay original, and not kluge in some kind of GM alternator workaround.
Hope someone can help.
