remove tensioner and belt brackets in enclosed pic. remove p/s bracket remove generator up and out then disconnect the electrical and power cover from generator. reverse to install and ensure that the accessory drive belt is properly seated on all pulleys. you also have to remove coolant reservoir and fresh air tube for fuse box
