Actually this is not that bad using jack stands on stable ground. I do side work in my home shop with no lift all the time. Life is either do it yourself or pay to have it done. I don't know your skill level or motivation level. There are things like exaust work I have done cause I'm to lazy to do it bit I don't criticize someone for providing some information to make an informed decision as to if your that person who can get it done or that one that needs someone else to do it for em.
Can't tell ya pretty simple job remove the tire and fender well....it's right there have done several in my home shop with no lift. As for having a lift 1000s of home based automobile enthusiasts do it without one I have built several ground up cars in a shop with no lift.
This is a great video but if you don’t know what your doing you need to know your going to need 16 mm combination wrench and 15 mm combination wrench. As well as other sockets and bolts .
No you don't remove the hose just allow it to relax . Removing the hose requires you to evacuate and recover the refrigerant first. If you have removed the hose you are going to need to have that procedure done to insure the system is properly filled and there are no leaks from damaged oring.
Thanks for this. It looks like I'm going to have to be doing this real soon as ours is on it's last leg. Not wanting to shell out 100s of dollars to replace one. I'm not mechanically inclined really; however, by watching this, I have somewhat of an idea on what I have to do.
I wanna say the tensioner is 14mm it's been a hot minute since I've done one. We don't service many of them. If your referring to the alternator pully itself I don't change it comes with new alternator. A basic set with a 45 degree head 10-19 will cover 90% of what you need I prefer a longer box end wrench when I can more leverage less fighting.
