The voltage regulator is on the botton of the alternator as seen from it's mounted position. Two phillips screws set an inch or so horizontally apart are removed, then the voltage regulator comes right out. It slips back in very easily. The brushes are what wears. They are carbon-like and about 1/2 inch long when new.
