Brad,
I recall that immediately after one of my alternator replacements (on the road in North Dakota) I had a lot of trouble with belt slippage. I fought it for a couple of days but it finally glazed the belt so I bad it needed to be replaced.
Turns out that the pulley on the new alternator was not in line with the crank pulley. This was corrected by adding spacers to the bottom mounting (to move the alternator forward, I think I recall). That solved the belt problems but the alternator soon failed because it was under capacity.
I too sometimes enjoy wandering through "U-Pull_It" yards when I'm trying to piece something together. Always seems like I end up doing it in the heat of summers (We're still getting highs in the 90's).
Good luck.
