Alternator Removal

[cornontherob]

Okay so this should help visualize my current issue. I can't get it past the lip of this bolt hole. I don't know if there's a certain way to wiggle it, or if those who have attempted it have successfully removed the whole thing.

After getting the bushing loose, you can remove the pulley bolt and the lower bolt. Lift and rotate the alternator counter-clockwise and it should be able to move free of the lip.
