Default changing an altenator in an 95

The screamin' deamon, the nickname I gave my 95 sport, has eaten an altenator belt... further review, the altenator is froze up. So that leads me to the experts. How do you change the altenator, is at easy as weaseling my hands in there to loosen some bolts, or do I have to remove a bunch of parts?? Or worse, do I have to pull the motor?

Any diagrams would also help.

I have never changed one but I was told its easier to get from the bottom. But when I pulled mine off I just took of the power steering resevior and there were 3 bolts maybe 4. Kind of hard to find and get to. But it can be done!!

jack it up from the passenger side take the passenger side front tire off. remove the plastic splash guard. tools should be a good 3/8" wrachet and a good set of metric sockets. that should do the trick.
