I didn't plan on doing this job yet I was gonna wait until I moved but the power steering pump starting to get worse and I figured while I had the belt off do the tensioner.

I have now discovered prior to coming back on here that is s sleeve that is designed to move unfortunately for me mine wouldn't move back. I tried hitting, heating, spraying tapping. Those are what I tried prior to going to the parts store for a new alternator.

Then I had the bright idea of using cutoff wheel to get it out of there.... Little bit of burnt belt and a frozen pulley later I put the new alternator in and all is good.

Power steering noise gone but I'm gonna do the idler pulleys when they come since one is really bad. I got the tensioner at the dealer but ordered everything else online because they are easier to swap out and the price as better.
