I had my stock alternator out last week to replace the brushes (after seeing the pics of your original stock brushes!) and when I went to put it back in it was binding a bit. I used a 12" long piece of 1x2 scrap wood I had lying around. The bottom end rested against the power steering pump and the alternator casing contacted it about 5" up. A little bit of pressure (pretty minimal) was all it took to get it back into the upper pivot mount.
