We need more info. The alternator is necessary, but the starter turns the flywheel to start the engine requiring a good battery. Does the battery turn the engine over, does the engine fire the spark plugs. Is there sufficient gasoline in the tank to start the car? Please give symptoms. Thanks.
it'll be something to do with the fuel or spark. check fuel pump, plugs and distributer cap, fuses wouldnt hurt either.
yes...who wouldnt?
As long as the battery is fully charged it will start no matter the condition of the alternator. Eventually the battery will run down if the alternator is not keeping it charged.
did you unhook the battery before replacing the alternator
alternator?

it wouldnt be able to start
It will start if there is enough charge in the battery to turn the engine over. However if the alternator is weak then the battery will not be charged fully.
Start the truck then disconnect the battery if it's still running the alternator is good
Alternator
The alternator, or stator, is behind the pull-start cover on the right side of the engine.
the batteries only serve to start the car and the alternator. I'm not sure if it would be your alternator but it's not the battery.
