Title: help the alt is stuck.
Post by: 390JOE on July 28, 2011, 06:54:07 PM
1988 jeep cherokee 4.0 6cyl with ac.

hey does anybody know how to get an alt unstuck from the where its mounted to.  because i have all the bolts out of it and the belt if off the pully and the wires are disconected but its still there, what im thinking is that it "welded" its self to where its mounted to, kinda like alum wheels to break drums.

spray the sections down where the brackets are. there corroded together. Then start tapping the sections where the alt bolts to the brackets with a hammer and it will work its self out!
