96 Alternator repair

Nov 16, 2006 7 Replies

Hello,



I seem to have lost, while driving, the lower bolt that holds the alternator on. This is the long bolt at the bottom which the alternator could swing on. The question I have is:


  1. Has this ever happened to anyone?
  2. What does the bolt look like? Perhaps someone can point me to an exploded view of this assembly?
  3. Does it have a nut or does it just thread into either the alternator or engine block?

Thank you, Rob



Sorry group, I should have been more specific on the model/year.

It is a '96 Saturn DOHC 4 door sedan.

Thank you, Rob

Thank you for the response.

Do you have the ability to scan that diagram in and email it to me?

Thank you, Rob

Yes, actual it is a computer based GM manual so I do not need to scan anything. It is for a 98 (it only goes back to that) but it should be the same as it matches my 97 perfectly..

Much obliged.

I take it you can get my email address?
