Although I read and re-read to make sure it should be a direct fit, I purchased the '98 5.9 Dakota 139A Alternator to replace my failing OE 90 amp unit. The new one is too large in diameter and won't fit. I've tried grinding the mount and the new alternator unit to no avail...
Can anyone HELP ME!!!!! My XJ is sitting 1/2 in and out of my garage as this was suppose to be a quick fix.
Any suggestions? I really can't afford to buy another new alternator since this one cost me $170 + core... and since I've grinded on it I doubt Autozone will exchange/return this one.
