2007 Toyota 4Stunner

I promise I'm not trying to copy you, but if mine ends up like yours.... Worse things have happened.

Toyota fans are cool because you don't need a tool to remove them, just 4 12mm bolts. Shroud is 2 bolts, 3 bolts on the expansion tank, then unbolt the alt and ps pump. Take passenger wheel off and remove a panel to unhook the connectors from the alt. Slide the ps pump out a bit then wrestle the alt out. Then we had to drop the sway bar to get the alternator down and around it, then all the way back up through the top. (Wrap your head around that) . Reverse the process for installation. I would never EVER attempt this alone. You need two sets of hands to hold the alternator as you fish it down, up, down and around to get to the awful torture cave it's in.

My reward to Zach for helping was letting him drive it to work. He loved my Tacoma, so we'll see how much he likes this!
