all i have to say is

no offense, if you can't swap your own, you deserve to get railed in the ass by whoever did it.

I know it is easy, but holy ****. Not everyone knows **** about cars. Your a dick!!

eurochevy

dude....for that price i think even if you have no auto background and stuff u can get someone to help u and u guys can do it urselves its not that bad or shouldn't be

Yeah because it's located right under the blower. But, me nor my dad have the proper tools or know anyone else with them, (for example...pulley puller). We're still new to town, so I'm kind of screwed. Plus my dad says this way we have something to fall back on incase it fails again. My dad and I are 'spretty good hany-men, but in this case...why not? No one has the time...he's busy working, I'm busy working and they're going thru a divorce.

You dont need a pulley puller, really theres 4 bolts on the throttle body, a few sensors unplug, theres 4 allen bolts 6mm i think on the blower itself and then you release the belt tensioner.

I have the 80 dollar tool from pulley boys for the tensioner makes life easy, then you pull off the blower theres 3 13mm bolts on the alternator, you unplug the battery in the trunk, disconnect the power from the alternator and the plug with a few wires, reverse the entire process and your done

maybe 1-2 hours tops, divorce or not everyone has two hours, tell the **** to shut the hell up

We really don't have two hours I'm working from 2:30 a.m to 8 p.m. as of now, and Dad's working just about the same.

That's what I'm gonna do smart ass! Back when we HAD our tools I did the pulley swap and injectors on my own minus the tune. So I know what I'm doing, but like I stated WE ARE NEW TO TOWN..therefor we know no one with the proper tools. (We had to sell pretty much everything including our two four wheelers and tools) I just had to tell ya'll and vent a little bit n' see if anyone else has had to have this done.
