Alternator arrived next day from Real Steel and was fitted within 15 mins!
Probably the easiest alternator I've ever fitted, thanks to Ford putting some effort into the method of fixing the alternator to the block.
To fit alternator: (see photos).
1: Disconnect the battery.
2: Unscrew bolts 3-6 and remove top bracket.
3: Disconnect connector plug & main battery lead (10mm nut).
4: Loosen 10mm bolts 1 & 2 approx 5-10mm, this will allow the alternator to lean forward and loosen the drive belt.
5: Using a 3/8" drive ratchet insert it into the tensioner and apply a clockwise pressure to release the belt.
6: Pop the belt off the alternator wheel and lift the alternator off in an upward direction.
7: Reverse proceedure to refit new alternator.
