Have you tested the battery to make sure it's good? Where did you get the alternators from? I've seen 3 consecutive reman alternators that were no good before. All depends on where you get them from unfortunately.

edit: Also make sure that your grounds and battery terminals are still good.

Fix your loose or corroded grounds.
