How hard to replace alternator mount rubber bushings 200

Hi,
I inspect a noise comming from the alternator, and I note the rubber bushings not tight, I have to replace, but my question is: There is a place to follow step by step to replace it?

Thanks,

Edwin

    How hard to replace alternator mount rubber bushings 200

    You have to remove the alternator and its mounting bolts to get the bushings out and new ones in. Make careful note of their orientation so the new ones go in properly. New ones will be tight, but can be lubricated with a bit of dishwashing liquid or Vaseline. I also used a big pair of channel-lock pliers to press them in. I removed the alternator's mounting bracket from the engine block so I could work on it at the bench.

    Don't forget the bushing in the adjuster arm bolted to the front of the engine block.
