The alternator went bad and I am trying to replace it. I have the two bolts out and it wont move. How do I get it out. I bought a repair bood and all it tells me is to remove the alternator. What am I not seeing? How do I get the thing out?

Some of the information I found, says the alternator is fastened in three places.

You can go to www.autozone.com click on the (vehicle repair guides) follow the links. There is information on removing the alternator. See if their info matches up with what your looking at.
