Default DIY: Alternator change

All,

Someone pmed me for tips in changing the alternator. I managed to compile a written guide for this job. I did not do a good job in documenting the whole process since I thought it was a pretty straight forward job. But of course, more pictures make everything better.

Hopefully, it will be helpful.

You're gonna need a special tool for that. Me and Lobuxracer had a conversation about that. I ended up replacing the whole alternator.
