I recently the alternator on my '87 9kT due to bad bearings and it sucked. Unfortunatly, I have also largely repressed the operation from my memory. The long lower bolt was easy (IIRC you remove this one through the hole in the PS pulley?), but the other long bolt which is accessible from the rear is a total bitch. I ended up removing my oil filter and tackling it with a long socket extension from behind. I think it went in pretty straight as I don't recall using a u-joint but I could be wrong. It will take a good tug to pull it from it's mount even once the bolts have been removed. Anyway, you shouldn't have to remove the PS pump, but it does take a long extension and a good deal of cursing.
