It's not all that tough. Putting the belts back on when your tired at the end of the job is what I don't like!!!
1) Remove A/C and Alternator belts
2) Remove nut from alternator long mount bolt
2) Flop alternator towards fender to get access to bottom A/C compressor mount bolt. Loosen but don't remove this bottom bolt. Remove 2 allen bolts on upper A/C compressor mount. If these are bodged, use a very tight vice grip to loosen. Lift up A/C compressor and carefully set it on top of engine.
3)Remove upper alternator mount bolt (are there 2, I forget?) and pivot alternator so that long bolt can be pulled out.
4)Remove alternator and replace bushings
5)Don't forget about the bushing at the bottom of the long alternator support bar down on the block.
6) Why not throw in a water pump while the patient is open.
7) Also a good time for putting in a new crank seal and oil pump seals if you have any leaks.
