To fit voltage regulator, no need for holding brushes.

Jeff:
The way I describe it is, sort of "screw" it down and into place, putting tips of brushes into hole in alternator, and moving them forwards towards slip rings as you lower the back end of regulator down parallel to alternator case. Push it forward towards shaft once it's down level. As oldsaab says, line up hole and get one screw in, then push it forward till other screw drops in and starts.
You're smart to ask and good to sense that you don't have it right. When it's there it will feel right.
I have done it several times and don't bother to move or remove anything. Read a tip on here about a long screwdriver and I use a very long shafted phillips, angle it in, keep the pressure on it from behind and even tho it doesn't fit square into screw head it works to loosen and tighten.
One screw seems impossible but I think I went just above oil pressure sender where it screws into filter base, and made it go.
