as everybody above said it isn't too bad. my advice is make sure you have a 13mm rachet wrench and some patience. also don't forget about the small electrical connection on the top of the alt. it will break very easily. i did my solids on jackstands and it took about 5 hours with a bunch of cursing breaks. take your time

even with a lift it sucks. be sure to have a big pry bar and take lots of breaks.

+1 to that. I had to compress the passenger side mount about a 1/2" to 1/4" while I already had the driver's side installed. I will tell you this that motor isn't coming off until it is motor swap time or Kmember time lol. But on a positive note, the driver's side was a breeze. Just which ever one you install second will have you cussing like a mad man
