Alternator rebuilders in South King Co?

Have one on the way out. Was either going to get a new one or have someone local rebuild it. Any reputable alternator folks around that you've used?

I have used R &L in Bellevue/Redmond for at least 20 years and they have been EXCELLENT!!

R & L Repair 1407 132nd Ave NE Bellevue, WA 98005-2259 (425) 454-6172

Much better than new and they can do it quick as well as over rated, smaller pulley's etc.

Talked to my Uncle and that's who he's used for years. Going to give them a shot. Thanks!

Scott @ The Rebuilder on Central in Kent. 253-854-0671. Typically $35-50 ish for rebuild. Tell him I sent you down there. Same day turn around too.

Haven't had much experience with them lately but sold them for over 30 years in my father's auto parts business in Seattle. Very few defective units. They usually just supply rebuilt units and you turn in your core but if you have something unique they will rebuild it for you. Used to be wholesale only which shouldn't be a problem through your store. Like many others they may be selling now to everything from distributors to retail customers. Apparently they've also moved as the main factory used to be in Seattle on Airport Way.

Thanks for all the suggestions... Went to The Rebuilder after calling them. They had a good core on the shelf. I chose to go for a full rebuild instead of just brushes. In 2.5 hours, including sitting in afternoon crosstown Kent traffic, I had a fullly rebuilt alt and was out the door under a hundred bucks. Excellent folks to deal with and I supported a local guy.

We're pumping juice again. Thanks! :cheers:

I knew of him and knew he did good work, but never knew exactly where he was or what the shop name was.
