Hi ctucker,

Disonnect the battery negative terminal. Make sure you have the radio security code if it is a factory unit.
Remove the cruise control actuator.
Remove power steering belt.
Dismount the power steering pump, need not disconnect the hoses but would make the job easier if the pump is removed.
Disconnect alternator wire harness connector and main cable.
Loosen the adjusting bolt and remove the alternator belt.
Remove the holding bolts and alternator can be reomoved.
