I've been in and out, checking in, how is everyone?


Put my 95 back on the road today again, lol. Alternator gave out, replaced it cheap, gave out again, and it melted the plastic guide piece on the back of the alternator along with destroy the 1/4 inch loop.

So I pulled the alternator, replaced it with a spare I had, then I replaced the connect loop and it was too big after the install.

I'm curious if anyone knows where I can find a replacement crimpable connector for the 4 gauge wire that has I think 1/4 inch loop that'll fit within the rubber guide like the oem piece.
I can do electrical work but I can't find anything for myself sometimes lol.

Right now I'm depending keeping the spare I had on the car, because the crappy alternator is under warranty and they said I can replace it with another crappy one or pay the difference for a better one that didn't cost 100 dollars.

I really rather return it, but I can't which is kind of gay because I could get a brand new one but not return it. like, this way they'd save more money because then I won't be breaking alternators monthly.
