How hard to install an alternator?

On these engines its a 15 mm bolt you have to get onto to release the tensioner. Don't use a socket at all, use a long open end or box wrench -- it's MUCH easier.
3 bolts on the alternator, 2 plug connections, 1 lug connection. Pay attention to the bolt tightening sequence, it's usually on the alternator sheet.
Disconnect the battery FIRST (the negative terminal only) since the lug on the alternator goes direct to the battery through fuse-links you don't want to blow.

it's really easy B...
get the serp belt tool and get one of those guides for you truck and it'll take about an hour if you take your time.
i had to take my intake off and then you must take the bolts out and unhook that harness and put the new one in and go backwards. the bolts were a pain in the **** to get loose because they haven't been loosened in i'm guessing EVER! but it's easy...
