We removed all of the bolts nuts etc, to remove the alternator. And the connector and a plug in back of the alternator. And the plus to the Battery cable. Everything is clear, ready to be removed, and it will not budge. Is there a harness or cover, or anything else that could be in the way? We also removed the belt and dropped down the air compressor for more room and jacked up and removed the inside panel.

Sometimes the alternator is kind of pressed into its mounts and you need to pry it out of there, but before you do let's make sure we have all the bolts out. Please check out the instructions in the images below on how to change the alternator out. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
