Alternator Belt Help
Im trying to replace my alternater belt, but I cant seem to loosen it. I took the bolt out of the "alternater belt adjuster" (or w/e you may call it) but I cant move the alternater. Right now Im pounding it with a hammer, but I wont be able to attack it with a hammer to tighten it back up. Is there another bolt im missing?
Thanks

Dammit. SOmehow the alt. came loose. I had to drive the truck with the belt slipping for 10 or so miles. I tightened it back up and now it wont stop slipping. I guess I burnt the belt up while it was slipping the first time?
