Hey everyone, I’m hoping someone can help me out here. My alternator is on its way out in my 2013 Ford Expedition, and I’m trying to avoid dropping a ton of money on a brand-new one. I was thinking of heading to a junkyard to pull one, but I’m not sure which alternators from other Ford models would be compatible with my Expedition. I figure if I can grab one from a different vehicle, I could save a decent amount of cash.
Does anyone know if alternators from an F-150, Explorer, or maybe even an older Navigator would fit in my 2013 Expedition? I’ve heard that some of the parts are interchangeable between these models, but I don’t want to end up with something that won’t bolt right in. If there are any specific years or models that are a direct swap, that would be awesome to know.
Also, is there anything I should be aware of when buying a used alternator? I don’t want to grab one that’s already on its last legs. I’d appreciate any advice from someone who’s done this before or has a solid interchange list. Thanks in advance!
