I was reading the faq on it and the guy says its just time consuming....I was wondering if anyone else has done this is it pretty easy....what are the biggest snags? I am just kinda worried about taking off the belts...never reeally done anything too invloved like this so just want to get a concensus. Thanks for any help.

 

It's not that hard at all. All you need is a couple of sockets and some extensions. I have done it twice on my car so far. I would type out how to do it but this link explains it much better with pictures...

Alternator Replacement

Chris

 

Jack the car up enough so that you will be comfortable when you have to pull that sucker out. When I replace mine, i drop it from the bottom of the car. Just move the AC compressor out of the way first.

 

I just did mine last night. On a lift it took about 1.5 hours. It wasnt too hard. I just removed 2 splash sheilds, unbolted and pushed a side the ac compressor and had good access to the alternator.
