we can't figure out how to get the darn alternator out of a basic model 4 cylinder ford contour - there are tons of postings for the V6 - but my dad swears we do no need to take off the tire wall??

THANK YOU!

How-to on contour.org (http://www.contour.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=zetecmaint&Number=304096&Forum=zetecmaint&Words=alternator&Match=Entire%20Phrase&Searchpage=5&Limit=25&Old=allposts&Main=300790&Search=true#Post304096)

After doing more research we found the orginal post and were able to remove it!!! - Also - after removing it we have found that it was actual the belt tensioner - that needs to be replaced (oh yeah soo happy about that...)
