well, my alternator on the 3.6L finally gave up. killed the battery too ...


now here's the 384 dollar question:

can i replace the alternator with the engine in the car ???


i don't have a garage or tools or jackstands where i live, so dropping the motor here is out of the question.

can i take off the intake plenum and remove the shroud and get to it from the top?

Yes, but it's a PITA. DO a search for alternator and user krk. Kim did it once years ago and posted the results.

found the thread ... this is gonna be helpful ... maybe this should be in the classics ???

Done.

So what was wrong with this thread that was already in the classics?

It is very descriptive on how to change an alternator in a six. I used it and it was very easy.

Nothin. Can't we have two?

Yea.. I just didn't see anyone mention it. Did Y'all miss it or what?

Obviously...
