I unbolted the alternator all the way.. and just need to know how to get it out? You can't feed it through the top because there is not enough room.. and everything is in the way on the bottom.

Please help.. I really need to get this out because it is fried and need to replaced ASAP

thank You!!!!!

 

From the shop manual. Have fun.

Raise the engine with a floor jack and remove the generator
upward from the engine room.

 

i take it by "generator"... you really mean the "alternator" ?

 

I don't "mean" anything that's right out of the manual.

 

oh wow.......... interesting... sounds like a fun job.. good luck to the OP!

 

It will be fun yes.

i assure as i have done this before it is much easier to remove the passenger wheel and hub assembly half shaft and take it out that way. check your fuse on the battery terminal first and make sure it is the alt.

 

you can take it out from under the intake manifold, under the throttle body and thru where the battery sits.

 

thanks.. i took it out this way ( :

mine was FRIED

 

You sure dont have to do all that. Ive done this job i can do it in a 1/2 hour now.

The easy way to take out once everything is unbolted is to take out dipstick, take off the fuel rail just lift and set to the side. And it sould come right out.

Dont pm me how to do it im sick of telling people how to take it out.

 

I was able to take it out through the bottom behind the crossmember with the downpipe removed.

I have a 03 though so I do not have the ACD which may make a difference

 

yup had to remove down pipe and axle. it popped out very easy after that

 

Oh god, Im doing this next weekend..... I thought it would be easy cheese....

 

alot harder then it was on a 1g, but still not the worst job ever

 

The worse job ever is removing the power-steering pump mated to a Turbocharged 350 crammed inside a 94 s-10 !! Trust me on that one.
(well reguarding small engine accessories, nothing is worse than engine removal)
