    Difficulty in changing alternator?

    On a scale of 1-10 how difficult is this and what is involved? Can one person do it alone?

    its very easy.

    just remove the airbox, and pop out 2 bolts for the alternator, then remove the wiring.

      then you have to replace the belt once you've replaced the alternator. wrap it around the fan, and adjust the alternator tensioner (screw that when you rotate, moves the alternator up a track).
