Silver Member Username: RideredderCornell, IL USA Post Number: 340 Registered: Sep-05 | Depending on the car and the location of the Alt., it shouldn't be that hard to do it yourself. I know on my car I could swap the alternator in less than 5 minutes. | |
Silver Member Username: HighstonePost Number: 185 Registered: Mar-06 | really... i want to do it on my car.. but i'm afraid.. especiall about putting back the best on it.. how hard is it to put the belt back on it.. cuz it looks very stiff.... | |
Gold Member Username: TheelfkeeperStockbridge, GA USA Post Number: 2127 Registered: Feb-05 | you'll have a tension pully or tension screws to adjust. loosen them all the way up and the belt will go right on. tighten the tension and it'll be like it is now. theres usually only 2 bolts that hold the alt in place and they are easy to find. but what you'll have to get off to get to the alt will be the hardest part depending on the car. i have to remove all my cruise control stuff and power steering pump, belt and brackets to get to my alt, lol. if you aren't sure, look for a Chilton or Haynes manual for your car at an auto parts store. it'll show you step by step how to do just about anything with the car. |

Silver Member Username: FandimReno, Nevada United State... Post Number: 997 Registered: Jun-05 | That's where my alternator is. 3 bolts. After the belts off, I can have it off, and the new one in, in less than 10 minutes (including time it takes to put the belt back on.) Heh, even less time than that, if I'm careful and the belt stays put and dosnt fall all the way off the other wheels and I dont have to re-run it all the way. |

Gold Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 2933 Registered: Sep-05 | Im gonna supercharge my FWD..... That will be a nice little project... But I can do a major burn out with traction off currently... | |
Gold Member Username: FandimReno, Nevada United State... Post Number: 1036 Registered: Jun-05 | Oh you meant from how I drive.. lol..! I dont go too fast in my car.. With six 12's in three boxes, two extra optima yellow tops in the back, and a W7 in a huge enclosure.. I've added a SIGNIFICANT amount of weight to my car, and it's definatley lost some power due to this I believe. Also, adding a HO alternator drained even more of my HP.. My car can still move pretty well though, but it's also an automatic, so I'm not burning too much rubber.. ;) (And with the price I paid for my 18" rims + wheels, I dont wanna have to replace my rubber anytime soon, LOL) |
