Only the pulleys are different: three belt for the M-151 take-offs folks
generally suggest, and two belt for the M-35's. HMMWV ones are the two-belt
type, and I've robbed one or two off of M-35 parts trucks with no problems.
Most of the HMMWV's we had came with alternators with the back mounting
casting sheared off due to some USMC mechanic-type reinstalling rebuilt
equipment, forgetting the spacer, and torquing the nut or bolt down for all
it was worth against a casting unsupported from behind. Naturally, they
cracked.
You can swap pulleys from your defunct unit to your replacement one if you
wish, but I've had a few that wouldn't budge despite being heated up to the
point of meltdown by the torch, and pried, beat, coaxed and otherwise
coerced without success.
Have fun!
