Hi Stirling, Doc here, you need to get the best locally available unit from the best Quality Source. The PROBLEM with a lifetime warranty is that the people who do the work are many times NOT QUALITY Conscious and the warranty for the unit that goes bad doesn't help your aggrivation/fustration level when is quits again for the second, or third time.

So the best unit to get is the Nissan Factory Remanufactured one from your local Nissan/Datsun Dealer in my experience for more than 30 years in the automotive field. Factory Hitachi alternators are great units and have a good warranty too. The price is possibly slightly more, but the QUALITY will be the blessing to you!
I hope that this helps you..........

Hi Doc,

I think my alternator is going out on my 88 300. My battery light comes on and my meter does not show that the alternator is charging. I have checked with NAPA Auto Parts, and they have an alternator for $120.00 with a 2yr warranty and one for 150.00 with a Lifetime warranty. I then called Kreagen's Auto Parts and the have one for $104.00 with a lifetime warranty.

My question is, is there a difference in these parts? Or does it matter?

Looking forward to your response

Stirling.
