Alternator Rubber Boot Replacement
Many times you will find the Rubber Insulation Boot located on the HOT wire connection to the Alternator is missing or so brittle it is cracked or not properly connected to the Alternator washer holding the Boot in place.
Alternator Boot. This Alternator Wire Boot fits perfectly on the main HOT wire of the Alternator connection and clips onto the Alternator Boot Retainer. Use a large FLAT HEAD screw driver to stretch the wire hole in the boot for insertion of the Alternator HOT wire connector. The wire hole in the boot retracts to normal size after wire connector insertion through the hole. This can be accomplished without removing anything from the Top End (The nut holding the HOT wire to the Alternator is removed, Old Boot Removed, New Boot installed, Nut Replaced). See Alternator Wire Boot

Re: Alternator Rubber Boot Replacement
What's up Cliff...
This guy fits CS144? I got a new insulator after the little fireworks gig during top end re-work (2 split O-Rings do NOT work), but no boot in place ATM here. I WATCH that ****er as much as I can now...

Re: Alternator Rubber Boot Replacement
did the new boot stretch over the ring terminal without issues?

The boot fit perfectly on the ring terminal. Now looking for a rubber boot that fits on the starter solenoid between the starter motor and the solenoid.

Re: Alternator Rubber Boot Replacement
Cliff,
Any chance you'd have the same info on the starter motor boot?
