I am considering installing an alternator on my 97 maxima. Do you pull the radiator to get to it? this seems to be the most logical because the compressor is under the alternator. I any one has done this and would like to pass on some advice, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chad

1) Make a written record of the radio station presets.
2) Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery.
3) Raise the vehicle and support it on jackstands.
4) Remove the two plastic splash shields which interfere with access to the alternator.
5) Loosen the drive belt idler (tensioner) pulley and then remove the drive belt.
6) Remove the A/C compressor mounting bolts. There are four of these bolts.
7) Remove the cooling fan and fan shroud.
8) Slide the A/C compressor forward.
9) Disconnect the alternator harness connector.
10) Remove the alternator upper bolt and lower bolt.
11) Remove the alternator from the vehicle.
Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure. As the final step, use the notes made in step 1 to restore the radio station presets. Set the clock to the correct time.
