Re: alternator


Hi Chris, have a look through this thread that I posted back in the early part of 2009. The relevant pictures are all from page two onwards.

Re: alternator


Thats is a brillant post Gary, VERY VERY helpful, Great idea with the piece of wood hold the crank still did't think of that.

Would this tool be suitable?

Re: alternator


That looks like it'll do the job Chris. I seem to remember mine came with a selection of different length bolts to screw into the alternator too.

Get someone heavy to hold the bike down for you or use a good sized lump hammer on the tommy bar extension to give it a few good sharp cracks to move it.

Re: alternator


Can't remember which way the thread goes on that bolt - LH or RH. Your not possibly trying to do it up are you Chris?
