Truck down and back up!

Well tuesday night, ryans truck went sour. The way to work the voltage gauge was reading low while the truck was running, and when he went to leave it was even worse, so he decided to leave the truck at work and hitch a ride home with a guy who lived nearby, so tonight he took the old mans truck to work and home, then i picked him up and we grabbed an alternator at auto zone and drove down to his work, tossed the truck in the heated garage, nice! Turns out the garage also has a nice movable overhead light and air hose hookups for air tools, removed the alt easily and ryan noticed the pulley's were different sized. so we searched around for an impact at his work and a large enough 1/2 inch socket to do the job. After the pully was swapped it was smooth sailing from there. 2 bolts, the belt back on, 2 harnesses, and fire her up. 14 volts indicate a win and its time to pack up and head home. Another day in the life.
