My suggestion would be to get a helm's manual. If you become a paying member, you will have access to the premiere forums. You will find the link to the helms in there if you ask.

It is not that bad! My Gen 2 you have to remove the drive shaft to get at the alternater! For you it's two bolts and a plug then wigle it out the botom

The thing to watch is the braket. The two parts of it may be made two diffrent kinds of metal and can seez together with all the heating and cooling.

Good luck

well... i completed the alternator ... turns out haynes manual is wrong and it is possible to take the alternator out the top, all you need to do is take a few braces off and move a few wires off to the side.
