Don't know this vehicle for diddle but no matter. Old alternator should have been tested and might have been fine. If this has fusible links to alternator or poor connections (melted) things like that could be the issue. It may (just can't know) have a separate voltage regulator or bad luck with the replacement alternator.

Charging system needs to be fully checked out including belt tension is proper, battery terminals and the cable ends at starter and engine block too all known good or things go crazy,
