I also rebuild mine but its a bit hard and time consuming to do that in the middle of a winch challenge so would rather a complete unit to swap over although i do have all the bearings and brushes to do it.

If all the info was present at the beginning, Then a new alternator(second) would have been the choice for a quick swap on course..
