Title: HELP.... Cant get the alternator out?
Post by: H8Rain on February 18, 2012, 09:02:19 AM

trying to remove the alt.  Have wires disconnected and all "mounting" bolts removed.  Something is holding it up at the bottom mounting location?  Bushing of some sort that needs to come out?

Title: I got it : )

Just a bit of pull required.

Glad you sorted it out(pun intended there).
I ended up helping it out with one of my pry bars.

Did you get the gasket/o-ring replaced on your oil filter housing yet?
