Nissan Repair: replace alternator 1995 2.4 nissan pickup, pivot bolt, belt tension


Question
my alternator seems to be held to block by 1 bolt thru bottom of housing drectly under pulley, also 1 bolt at belt tension adjusting bracket.
alternator i saw on one site has 1 bolt each side that is supposed to fit my model. am i missing something? also, it looks resonably easy to remove and replace. do you agree?
thanks for any advice,  DUKE  

Answer
Duke,

Make sure the replacement is the same and it should fit.  The pivot bolt and the lock bolt for adjustment have to be removed to get the alternator off.  Be sure to disconnect the battery before you start since one of the wires on the alternator is hot all the time.
