Weak Charge from Alternator

It appears I'm only getting 13.2V charge at the battery in my bus (1989 2.1 MV auto)... I'm about to replace the voltage regulator but where else should I check?
I'd already changed the voltage regulator about 6months ago but it didn't really make much of a difference - I'm hoping it was a duff or inferior quality item (can't remember where I bought it)

Thanks

Check the wire that goes from the starter to the alternator, make sure the main connections to the alternator are clean and engine earths
