In NC we have DC automotive that has used alternators.
I was tempted to get one to test and install if good and rebuild the current one as spare. Has anyone had luck getting a chain to bench test?
Also what alternator is it? I.e., what would I search for matching rectifier and brush parts?
I checked some threads and didn't find any successful tests or repair attempts.

I have a local shop that rebuild them. I dropped one offthis week to to have ready to go. He ises a Brazillian solenoid as the Bosch ones are not great.
$175 shipped with core.
