*Remove belt

*slightly loosen long bolt for the alternator to bracket, the one farthest from engine.

*Unbolt the short alternator bolt, the one closest to engine.

*Rotate alternator toward driver's side fender.

* Retighten long bolt

* Reinstall belt

* Bag, label and save short bolt.

This actually sounds like a bad idea to me. I'm sure it's working for some of you, but I don't like the idea of leaving my alt. hanging on one bolt and the belt. Perhaps if you could fabricate a bracket to mount the other bolt to it would be a bit more secure. Unless I'm missing something.
I'd like to think my life has a soundtrack, and it sounds just like the white album.
