I have an 88 crx HF with a b16a swap and my alternator recently pooped out on me. I got the alternator unbolted but am having troubles actually getting it out of the bay.

i'm sure some of you have had experience with this so what is the trick to getting this thing out of there?

 

I dont think you can pull out from the top so try and drop it from underneath the car.....i think that should be the easiest way.

 

2 options
A: remove the brake master cylinder (youll have to bleed the brakes after your all done) and pull it out from the top.

B: take out the driver side axle.

i personally just take out the axle. that way i dont have to mess with bleeding the brakes.

 

mines on a 91 hatch,

what i did was remove the intake manifold, i had to install my JDMsh!t racing IM, and then removed the alternator bracket. just changed the alt. that way

 

getting it from the bottom is the easiest imo, im for doing it the easiest way

 

it can come out from the back foundation side
