Ok so I just had one question before I do this. The book/the guy at autozone made it seem a little too easy.

I get that you undue the 3 bolts and take out the two connectors and all the basics, my main question is regarding the belt. How will I know if the belt is properly put back on/tight enough? Is there a special tool I'll need or can I do it myself?

Thanks,

Matthew

wow measuring and all... way too tough... twist the belt between the alternator and pulley... if it turns more than 90* then you need to tighten it... if it squells... loosen it... that easy
