Tip to easy alternator install. It will just drop in without a fight.

1. Look at the two rear alternator mounting tabs.
2. You will see two hexagonal steel inserts. They are threaded.
3. The alternator bolts thread into these inserts.
4. I press them out a little to widen the opening. (Do not press them out)
5. I use a 5 inch c-lamp and a socket to press them out a little.
