Hey,

just got a new alternator.... about to put it in but i need to find a guide on properly removing it... its kinda hidden... anyone have anything?
 
The easiest way i found is unbolt the cruise control and move it to the side. disconnect the power cable (12mm) and plug,take the 12mm bolt out from the alt.Then remove the adjustment bracket (14mm) take that out.Then Take the bottom bolt out and pull it up from the top.I had to replace the alt in my 626 and the manual said to take the pass axle out to get it out.But i think this is easier.
 
Does anybody have any pics on this? I'm better at driving a nail that I am at torquing lugs! That said, with the right directions I can usually figure it out! Thanks
