Gotta second this. The alternator ground wire in two of my 240's failed inside the crimp in the sub frame side. The red sleeve was all that was holding it together and there was no way to see the failure until I gave the thing a yank and it left the eye on bolt.

Remember, out alternators are completely isolated from ground by the accessory bushings so that wire is the only thing between you and intermittent ccharging issues.
