I recently asked how to removed a altenator from a 93 acura and here was
your response.

Wanted to let you know, even w/ those instructions the there is not enought
room to allow the altenator to fit down. What has to be done is remove the
cv axle altogether, then take down the altenator.

Oh well. Guess my memory was faulty on that one. Thanks for the correction.
