Is there no DIY for alternator replacement?

It is possible to get it out by twisting. You just have to make sure when you lift it you do it evenly so the corner doesn't catch anything that will keep it from rotating.

Sorry for post spamming. Can't seem to edit on mobile site. We did remove the strut bar too.

You found as I did it has to be turned. Please do a video so Zoom will put it in a DIY. Believe me it will be appreciated by all at eight years in .

Alternator/Generator install video
Anyone have a video of replacing/installing a 2004 alternator?
