The regulator is located inside the alternator. You will either have to get another alternator, or call around to find a shop that repairs them.
The voltage regulator is built into the alternator.
Found the answer: The voltage regulator on a 98 Dodge RAM 1500 is NOT in the alternator. The alternator specifically states that the voltage is "Externally Regulated". In this vehicle the voltage regulator is built into the computer of the vehicle. To repair a bad voltage regulator in the computer you can either replace the computer or bypass the computer using about $50 in parts (ask your mechanic). Hope this helps.

Inside the alternator
The voltage regulator for the alternator is in the computer. If the voltage regulator in the computer does not work, you can add an external voltage regulator and then your battery will charge normally. Make sure to check the ground on the computer. If the ground is bad on the computer, then the computer will not regulate the voltage to the alternator properly.
