Do you have a volt meter? do you have a battery charger?

Take the battery out and find out what the static voltage is. Let us know

Then take your battery charger and hook it up on high... then take your volt meter and hook it up parallel with the battery and charger.

Get a watch and turn the charger on. If the battery goes over 15.5 volts within 3 minutes then the battery has sulfated plates.

This is just a very simple way to see if your battery is good or not... If it comes out good then have it load tested with a VAT.. autozone can probly do it for free.

As for your ALT take it of and get it bench tested.

If you feel comftorable taking your alt appart i can guide you throught on how to chech the voltage regulator and the diodes and stator to make sure its all functioning properly. Im not sure if the FSM shows diagnostic procedures for the alt but its worth a look.

How about formulating complete sentences to start with, punctuation is your friend.
