An alternator swap isn't too hard, provided the alternator isn't physically located in a difficult-to-access area . Disconnect your battery wires (I usually tape off the ends just to be on the safe side), then the alternator wires. Somewhere in the belt system there will usually be a tensioner spring attached to a pulley that you can loosen to get the belt off. After that, you just unbolt the old alternator, bolt on the new one, and reverse the process.
Great info to know. Maybe next time I'll install everything myself instead of paying a pro to do it.
