I have a 1995 Nissan p/u with 140000 mile. My battery and brake light came on and I took it to the local part store and they told me that my alternator was only putting out 11 volts. So I changed the alternator with a rebuilt one and now I can only get 12.80 volts, is that enough?

I would get a Haynes Manual.
Somewhere in there you should be able to find the spec for the alternator.
Just make sure your battery is fully charged when you test it.
