89 Ford Capri sa turbo alternator replacement?

You can replace the regulator without removing alternator. Just remover 2 rubber hoses in way. (from underneath car) To remove whole alternator: From underneath: remove oil filter, rubber hose into sump, main battery lead and indicator cable, lower pivot and mount. (hole through axle support allows bolt removal) From above: remove master cylinder, valve on end of intake manifold, 2 brackets supporting power steering lines, 2 parts top bracket supporting alternator crescent, top alternator adjusting bolt. Push alternator to one side, then disconnect power steering pipe at join below alternator. This allows you to push power steering pipe to one side. You can now wriggle alternator with pulley uppermost and with a little brute force and a lot of wriggling, remove upwards. It helps to tie a piece of wire round it to get a good pull. It will tend to catch on the power brake booster bolts but with a bit of leverage and patience it will come out.
