    You can get a re-man Alt at any parts store for under 300 bucks and it comes with a lifetime warranty. We can get you one shipped same day if you need, and send us back your core to get the credit. let us know if we can help.

    I'd bet Chad at Detroit tuned could help or maybe Eric at Helix & if need be call Way. International Parts Store will have it too.

    I guess I should have clarified, does anyone local have a used one laying around?
    I want to fix my car tomorrow.

    Remove alternator. Take to alternator rebuilder. Wait an hour, reinstall

    Stupid question but have you tried any local parts stores or junk yards?

    Hope you find one.

    I don't know where you live, but there is a guys that runs a junk yard and has several R52 for parts. Now he's in CT but I think they do ship. Hope this works out
