Transcripts
what's good everybody so all the
information is going to be on the
description let's go ahead and start by
jacking up the car put in the jack
stands go ahead and remove the passenger
side wheel and then we're going to go
from there next go ahead and remove the
negative terminal from the battery which
i'm gonna remove it from here you can
remove it from this one as well go ahead
and remove these four bolts right here
on the cover and remove the cover out of
the way
after that go ahead and get you a 3 8
ratchet and just go ahead and put it
right there in the pulley and to remove
the belt you're going to want to pull it
up just like this
this one it is a little bit hard so i'm
going to use a little pipe extension
just to give me a little bit more
leverage go ahead and remove that and
then we're going to be working on the
side of the vehicle next thing go ahead
and get you a 10 millimeter socket and
you're going to remove this cover right
here and it does have four bolts
starting from here all the way
on this end go ahead and remove this
bolt right here and that one right there
and those are 10 millimeters and we're
going to be moving it out the way
because we are going to bring the
alternator towards this way next thing
go ahead and take out these 12s this one
this one and that one right there
and then we're gonna be removing this
back out of the way
so this is how the brake looks all three
are 12 millimeter bolts so it should
look just like this after that go ahead
and remove this bottom bow which is a 14
millimeter
once you take out the nut it is cut from
the top so the whole boat is going to
stay in there the only thing is once you
do remove the nut
the alternator it is kind of stuck to
this so what i always do is go ahead and
get either a screwdriver extension or
something just put it over here on the
side and just hit it with the hammer
kind of sideways that way you can get it
on stuck okay so once you take out that
uh nut you see this this little bracket
right here that holds alternator so you
can just pull it up
and then remove that bolt that way it
won't be on the way or anything once you
do that go ahead and twist the
alternator this way
just like that okay as you guys can see
this is the power boat and this is the
cable on this connection it has a thing
that you gotta press so you press it in
and then pull it up just take this
connection out first
and then this one is a 12 millimeter so
go ahead and remove that so the last
bolt that you got to remove is that one
right there and i put the camera a
little bit close but i just wanted to
show you where is it at from far away so
is that one right there it holds the cv
axle in place go ahead and remove that
that way the cv axle can move just a
little bit and enough room to be able to
take out the alternator okay sorry it
does have two bolts the one that i was
pulling it was that one right there but
it does have one under here the best way
i reached it is went under the car and
i'm gonna go ahead and remove that one
as well and that one is a 14 so go ahead
and do that so the way i'm taking it out
i'm going to show you guys on the new
one i put the alternator just like that
so that's how i set it up right there
the connections
are right here on this side
they coming out pretty free because
there's nothing right here on the way
and that bracket will gave us enough
room to
put that cvx or just a little bit more
down so as you guys can see
that's pretty much how it came out
pretty easy once you get the right
things to remove and stuff once you
remove it from here you're going to want
to take it out from the right so i'm
going to go ahead and do that all right
so one of the most important things
whenever you do a job like this make
sure before putting the new alternator
in make sure everything's the same but
it is go ahead and install it the
bracket that i was telling you guys is
sitting right here just like that so
whenever you remove both of the bolts
this is just gonna pretty much move
freely if it's kind of stuck right here
to the block just make sure to kind of
pry it out the connection for the
alternator which is this one right here
i'm gonna show you real quick the way to
remove this connection you're just gonna
squeeze this and then pull it up make
sure you do it because you don't want to
damage anything especially right here
uh inside because then the alternator is
not gonna be working properly then
you're gonna be doing the job two times
and that connection simple as well if
