Alternator pulley help
So I started my sisters xj that has been sitting for a couple months and I heard a terrible squeal and smoke come from the belts. I took off the belt to check if the pulleys were all spinning. Once I got it off I found the alternator pulley was not spinning. Can I replace the pulley? or do I have to get a whole new alternator?Thanks

If you are gonna have more lights or stereo or other electrical addons in your Jeep, you may consider getting a beefier alt now since it is only a little bit more $ and a tiny bit of work.
It is rumored that with just a bit of modding, the Dodge Durango alts fit in Cherokees with a big up in amps, 136 amps.
