Kind of a pain. Haven't done it in a while, so bear with me.
First you need to drop all the belts. There is an idle pulley, and the alt are used as the tensioners for the 4 cyl engine. There is a lock bolt, and then the tensioner bolt. You must loosen the lock bolt then loosen the tensioner bolt.
Then there should be a pivot bolt on the alt that needs to be removed to get the alt out.
Don't forget to disconnect the battery first. There is a live line on the back of the alt. Big post on the back. There should be 2 lines on the back of the alt that need to be removed.
Seems to me there is another bolt to get it off, that you will see behind it, but I could be confused with something.
