After you realize that noone knows what a EF engine bay is like. Take the Master Cylinder out( i had to change mine anyways)and the Alternator comes right out.

to take it out underneath you gotta take out the drivers side axel and half shaft.

lol, man, I feel your pain. Pain in the butt to swap those out, aren't they?

Nice pretty colors under the hood And that valve cover looks lovely, haha

Dude, you dont have to take out the master cylinder You dont have to take out the axle Take off your stone shield (plastic stuff) that doesn't do anything anyway and turn your wheel to the left, the alternator will come out. Changed one on a 91 hatch 2 weeks ago. Think smarter not harder.

^... you serious? I didnt completely take out my master cylinder but I did unbolt it/move it. I remember there being just a metal piece blocking the alternator from dropping to the ground

SpankedYA!

Might as well have just pulled the motor and tranny.

nonvtec

Yes, unless they put stuff in the way on older ones and got rid of it by 91 I am correct. I did this on a 91 EF hatch without any of the headache you guys are talking about.
