I have read several threads as well as swapped on 80 series alternator previously. I am missing something as I read the alternator can be swapped without removing the battery, battery tray, oil filter and Power Steering Reservoir to Pump hose. The last swap I assisted on we pulled the fan shroud and fan and brought it out the front. It seems everyone else is able to pull the oil filter and come out the back without touching the battery, battery tray or power steering at all.
What am I missing? Does the charcoal canister have to come out?
