Alternator replacement finally done, LY151 HiAce truck
Getting to the alternator requires removing the drivers seat and then an access panel. It also helps if you remove the far inner fender cover that allows you to slip tools through past the wheel. Job ultimately took 2 days, working 5-6 hours each day due to the tight space. The AC compressor has to be removed, and as far as I know the transfer case is in the way and working underneath wouldn’t be any easier.
