I had the same problem (alternator loose and jumping around). I bought the set of the bushings, but it turned out to be "the bolt" that adjusts the alternator. It was tightened (adjusted) and my problem went away. This is not one of the DIY jobs that I tried, as I do not have access to a shop. Removing the A/C, belts, etc. just to get to the alternator and then putting everything back in it's place was over a 2 hour job. I would have thought you could reach the adjuster bolt, without removing the A/C, etc. Guess not. Depending on the shop labor hour charge, you are looking at approx. $250.00 labor with zero parts required. Good Luck
