Hi,

To replace the alternator, you will need to work from under the vehicle. Also, before you start this job, make sure the battery negative terminal is disconnected.

Here is a link that explains in general how it is done:

If you look below, I attached the directions specific to this vehicle. Take a look through them and let me know if you have questions.

Take care and let me know how things work out for you.
