To date the 4 cylinder Camry alternator is the fastest one I’ve ever replaced. From start to finish I think I spent 20 minutes on it.
only thing I've done is change a battery, an alternator and tires (weather checking).
Denso reman from rock auto, youtube the job. Plan for up to 4 hours if you're a first timer.
I recently replaced the alternator on my 99 1MZ Solara (really just a 2 door "sporty" Camry), I went to an alternator/starter rebuild shop and swapped my 24-year old alternator for one they had in stock they'd rebuilt with a Denso core.
Beware of cheap aftermarket junk. I would only get an OEM or denso alternator.
Or since Denso is the OEM, you could get a remanufactured one at [NAPA](https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/DEN2105000) or [RockAuto](https://www.rockauto.com/en/parts/denso,2105000,alternator+/+generator,2412), but it looks like they're out of stock. I would not trust the cheaper remanufactured ones that are made by the other brands. Denso is reliable, and I'd trust their reman parts, if you decide to go the reman route.
But try to get denso one or oem. Aftermarket ones tend to not last a long time.
A 98k on a alternator made after 2020 isn't bad. Almost impressive.
Radiator let go about 12 months ago, and suspension is well overdue for new bushings. Also recently had to replace an alternator.
Alternator has been replaced 2 times within the year battery is also new and the odds of 2 brand new faulty alternators is pretty slim.
