Excellent. I look forward to seeing the pics. I had that damn tensioner fall throught on a 95 neon that I had to change the alternator on. What a nightmare to fish that damn thing out. Easier is always better!

I forgot to mention thats its easiest to remove the bottum bracket totally and then hang the alternator from that side bolt on the top mount and then put the bottum mount on once the alternator is hanging from the top mount then begin to tension it.

Here's Autozones repair guide, but I prefer my way since I don't have to remove those top bolts once I assemble them as shown in the pic. plus i can hang the alternator off the top bolt and assemble the bottum mount easily. Its a very easy job once this is done takes about 15-20minutes to do, in the time it takes you to jack the car up and throw jack stands under it is the same amount of time it takes to change... very fast!.

Hell, that looks pretty straightforward. My stuff should arrive sometime this week and hopefully it should go pretty easy judging by your diagram and instructions. Thanks JackMeoffer! If youre ever in Michigan and want to learn some Ju Jitsu and have a beer, let me know!
