Thanks everyone who helped!  Is the Old Volks home located in Rocky Mount NC?  There is one located there that is a shop that fixes VWs.  I was wondering if it was one in the same.  Also Ken how much are these bearings and the voltage regulator from your company? Thanks I appreciate all the help that you guys have given me with everything.

  PS.  When lowering the fuel tank, how much extra line is available coming from those expansion tanks?  I would hateto break them if they aren't already.

  Thanks Leron

  Ron, the SKF bearing numbers I have are:
6203ZQE6/6203.2RSR for one bearing and 6201.2RSR.C3.L12 for the other.
I can get these for you if you can't find them locally. Also you should
replace the voltage regulator since the contacts in this will be worn at
a strange angle when you put the new bearings in. I have these as well.

I hope this helps,

> Hi Does anyone know what size bearings are needed in a alternator for a 85 vanagon? It is a weekender Westy with the two battery setup. My belt broke Sunday as I was leaving for church and when I replaced it on Monday the bearings are keeping all grades of noise intermittantly. Help I hope to be able to salvage the alternator without having to replace the whole thing. There is a shop arond here that sells all kinds of bearings and I hope to be able to just remove it and put more right in with no down time. Help!!!
