Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Maintenance and Repair / November 2005Quality of Beck/Arnley parts
How good is Beck/Arnley products compared to, say, AC Delco or Denso or the Advance/Autozone house brands? The price is vastly better ($67 compared to $100 for the house brands and $150 for AC Delco). I'm looking at a remanufactured alternator for a 1985 Corolla SR5. Thanks! Did you try changing the brushes first? Around $20 from the dealer. For exchanging the unit, if you have Denso, stay with Denso. > Did you try changing the brushes first?

I don't know how old it is but the belts were changed about a year and a half ago. The one in there now is a remanufactured Denso. > Did you try changing the brushes first?

They source parts like everyone else. In the auto parts industry, today, most, even the most celebrated and trusted red blooded american pie companies source parts from China, Taiwan, Etc. Trust me, I use to do automotive trade shows. I use to see the purchasing guys talking to the Chinese factories and listen as they set up deals. I'd smile to myself and remember how many poor guys out there swear by those good old American companies. Beck Arnley is a good company, they have good stuff. > How good is Beck/Arnley products compared to, say, AC Delco or Denso or > the Advance/Autozone house brands?
