Hey! I think the alternator on my 420A broke, so i am trying to take it out and Find a Replacement.. but the problem I have is with the loosening the bracket. The bracket is 3 bolts, 2 of which I have gotten out. They are REALLY tight on there. The last one I can’t get loose because either the socket is too short so the tool goes into the pulleys, or the socket is too long so I can’t get the tool on the socket because the frame of the car is in the way.. and I can’t get a wrench on there in the correct angle so I can put a pipe over it. And it’s too tight to get loose with just a wrench. I got the 2 out with a cheater bar but barely. Those 2 are not close to the pulley or frame therefore I got them out.. any tips ?
