1. Take care in loosening the alternator and p/s pump. There is a toothed bolt for the alternator and you do NOT turn this, you remove the nut from the back, otherwise you will break it. The P/S pump is adjusted with a long bolt, and this adjustment is tricky and not intuitive

I wish I had read that before I did mine. Those little teeth sheared right off. Luckily I was still able to get it tightened up again. I have an extra in the tool box from a junk yard just it case it fails.
