we are in process of removing alt on 89 carb.

how in the heck do you get this thing out?
we have all the bolts off, plugs off, etc but are not sure how this thing can get out.

it doesnt seem to be able to slide out through the top. any ideas/tips how?
do you have to take the axel off? if so how?

also another possibility is the alt bracket and slide out through wheel well area?

please give me some ideas

thanks!

 

you will have to take the brake master cylinder off and sit it to the side then just bolt everything back up and be on your way

 

whats an 89 carb?

 

1989 Honda Accord 4 door carburated

 

if the alternator is on the driverside then you should be able to take off the driverside wheel and maneuver it out some how. well hope it helps somewhat.

 

take the bolts off of the side motor mount and jack the motor up alt will just about fall out

 

any idea how to remove the axel

 

A screwdriver.

 

pull the wheel....unbolt the 17mm castle nut on the ball joint.....pop it loose with a pickle fork....pull it forward, after its loose.....take a prybar and pop the axle out of the tranny...you dont have to pull it out of the car, just out of the tranny, and the alt will fall and hit you on the head.

yet another reason i like having a lift at my house...and 12 at work

 

where you work at???
