Thanks for your reply brookings...Im afraid to subcribe to another service. Im currently subscribing to www.eautorepair.netand they dont give any r&r information on the alternator. If you can tell me that www.alldata.com has itI will subscribe to it. THanks again

I checkedalldatafor my 300sl and they show how and where. But for my rig it don't take rocket science to figure out how to change. It's right out in plain sight. Those V8s & 12s are wedged in there pretty tight. btw www.autohausaz.com have fairly good on line prices.

THanks again Brookings...You are right about my v8. You can hardly see the alternator. It's buried underneath distribtor and cap and wires. Also doent look like it can be removed from underneath because of plumbing and other things...
