I used a brute force method on my '86 that may or may not be ideal. I put the alternator on the floor and I jammed a large screwdriver in the cooling blades. I then used a wratchet and a piece of steel pipe that I use as a breaker bar while standing on the alternator to keep it from moving. The screw driver hit the floor and kept the pully from turning while the nut came off. This method worked fairly well and without specialty tools, but there is some risk of making the assembly untrue. I do not know that the correct torque spec is and I tightened a little past were the lockwasher was almost completely smashed down. my $.02
