Does anyone know the easiest way to replace the alternator on a 280ZX with power steering?????
The choice seems to be either.........
1. Unbolting the power steering pump and shoving it out of the way to get the alternator up and away, or
2. Pulling it out from underneath. Not sure if the splash panel and sway bar have to come off.
I don't have a lift, just a jack stand.
Anyone been there, done that?????????????

Trust me, if you don't want to go underneath, un bolt the power steering. It is so easy this way. good time for new belts if needed. No need to disconnect the lines.

Thanks for the benefit of your experience, Paul. Nice to know you are headed in the right direction when you pick up the wrench.
