I replaced the alternator on my LS yesterday and I must say it was a real hassle to get out...I am grateful for having someone helped me cause there is no way I could have done this alone.

LS400BOY - I am shocked that you pulled it out from the top, I was debating whether to remove the radiator hose as I wasn't sure if it would splatter and make a mess.

from the top is pretty easy lol. loosen up the serp belt and ur set.

LS400BOY

who ever got the alt from the botom is a lier lol the only way to get it from the bottom is if you take off the front sway bar

LS400BOY

i had to move the top cover off, radiater fan shroud, battery and battery holder, the belt, top radiater hose left 1 and the lower 1. its going to bw a mess but theres no way avoiding it but well worth it

u can remove it from the bottom also...its the same since it just slides right out. i didnt remove any rad hoses, i just pushed them aside and held it with my elbow.

Ya don't touch the sway bar. NOONE likes to be called a lier, especially when we are giving YOU advice that YOU asked for. EVERYBODY takes them out from the bottom. Ya take off the bottom engine cover, the serp belt, wire connecters, move the PS lines out the way, 1 nut 2 bolts and it comes out, with some twisting. NO mess. I took mine out once from the bottom (20 minutes) and when I did my first timing belt I got it out the top b/c everything else was out the way, including the PS pump.

LS400BOY

mine didnt slide right out it hit my lower radiater hose but if that theres was no room to even grab and pull it up threw the top with out taking some stuff off, pluss what hole yall be getting the alt to go threw the bottom , theres no way in hell man

LS400BOY

please use something that resembles proper grammar in your posts, it makes reading them a lot less painful/irritating and makes many (such as myself) more willing to help rather than ignoring posts that are too much trouble to read.

you have several members with a fair bit of experience telling you how to do something, so logic tells us that just because YOU can't figure it out doesn't mean they're lying, it means YOU are more likely to be doing something wrong, rather than them BSing you.

be careful calling people out like that.

for the record, the alternator in the 1 and 2LS can be taken out either from the top or from the bottom last I checked.

^^^ Hey Drifter, we agree on something, what happened? LOL

LS400BOY

deanshark

WOW, here it comes. It's true, if ya don't type where people can understand then how is anyone supposed to give you the right advice? Ya gotta watch what ya say to the long time members if you want our advice in the future. Can't we all just get along?
