Default alternator removal

What is the best way to get the alternator out of my 92 Civic CX?? It doesnt look like from the top, but mabey from the bottom. Not much room to work with. Anyone that has replaced theirs, let me know how you did it. Is it a involved job? Thanks guys!!

Derek

Not a bad idea.

I take out the top mount of the alternator and pull it from the top.

i also have a lift and air when i do them. i can see where hand tools would make them come out the top.

Yea i have air too. But no lift and to lazy to keep ducking under to get an axle. So the top works

I remove mine from the bottom without pulling an axle. I just recently did this with a b18b in my eg, so I don't see any reason why you couldn't with a d15/16.
