How do you know the alternator is going out? Most people only knew when the battery dies. Is that what is happening?
When it does, and the car has close to 100K miles, likelihood is just the brushes are worn out. In that case just keep your trusty OEM alternator and simply replace the brushes. they are cheap and not that hard to do once the alternator is out of the car.
