Hi Guy......when I was there at Choo Choo Express having my coach serviced back in January of 2013 I was told my rattling alternator would fail soon......it has been almost 5 years since I was told that and it is still working fine....the rattle is no worse than it was then. I'm not telling you to have it replaced, but it may not be an emergency. I am not implying they are being dishonest.....I like them a lot and would have my coach serviced there again without a second thought. I am just saying I don't think this is an emergency, and I don't think it should take 8 hours. I know that Steve Ward (Prarieschooner) removed his alternator (gear driven) himself. He also has a 6v92 like me, and that may be the difference in being able to access it more easily....a shorter engine.
