Political Correctness is Terrible!

A student tried to argue with me in class for addressing "Ladies and gentlemen" I openly told her that I was only addressing ladies and gentlemen.

What is the total length of your extensions?

Toyota great til it ain't. What a piece of shit. Japanese engineers can kiss my ass

I got it from the top easy... 2nd time doing this... I have a 2013. Never removed tire. I used like 22 inches of 3/8 extentions (like 4 pieces & some are "swivel cut" extensions) and a standard swivel at the end with a 12mm to loosen... To reinstall snug up the main 2 bolts then use a sheet of paper to shim the bolt onto your socket with a mallet... this keeps the bolt on the socket while you shimy it back in place and start it. There is a line of view from the top. U might need a step stool but you definitely need a flashlight to see it. With some practice you should be able to remove and install that bolt in 5 min total of course it takes 3 min just to set up that massive extension 🤣 Neighbors looking at me crazy 🤣

Stop making fun of that show spencer

Great video my friend

Dave Portnoy doing alternators…I’ve seen it all. Cheers mate

What a PITA!!! Thanks for posting this.

Wow! can't believe I stumbled across this video. I would have been one frustrated bubba. It is still hard to remove and reinstalled but I Got er Done!

Thank you now no fighting before I start

I hated Toyota enginers for this stupidity

Hurts the feelings...God bring back the days no one gave a fiddlers fart about a feeling unless it bled😤

Extremely helpful. Thank you for making this video.

I'm for people expressing themselves, I have no problem with that. The fact it continues to get worse over the years makes me question a lot of things. What would be funny is to see on tv is the current generation suddenly transported to the 70s and 80s. Imagine how that would turn out.

MIKE BAXTER is TOXIC

Auto Zone parts.....your first mistake.

You saved my life. Thank you so much, I been trying to remove it for more then 2 hours didnt work until I watched your video🎉❤😂

Thanks . You're a life saver.

Thank you for sharing this tip!

The really sad thing is... I identify with this. I hate these times and the PC BS. Time to die.

"I believe red China had the same conformity". They've been dissecting America via equality since the late 70's.

I just replaced my 2011 Toyota four runner alternator. This video was very helpful. I removed the wheel and had a splash/mud guard I had to pop two plastic riviots off to get the angle for the extension and swivel with 12mm . I have to be honest. It's not recommended, but I didn't get that bolt back in. I lost that bolt down in the bottom skid plate and decided I am gonna change my oil next weekend. If I find it I'll will attempt to put it back. I just replaced the alternator on my 2006 four runner and it only had two bolts that should be fine.

Thanks for the tips! That bracket can be accessed from the left side also if pull back that fender liner. I used that side to reinstall the bolt. The left side of the shock also makes it easier to get those two wire harness bolts on the alternator.

How do you remove the wire harness? I pulled the two 10mm bolts, but have no idea how to remove the cover to the terminal wire or the plug to the alternator. Also there is a harness cable going down the back of the alternator which is anchored to a bracket. seems like you'd need to romove it from the bracket too.

Thank you. Couldn't have done this job without your video.

Best show ever. Bring it back

The U.S. Navy is enforcing that preferred pronoun horse s***. The enemy will not give a damn about anybody’s preferred pronoun. The enemy will not give a damn about anybody’s hurt feelings.

I wrestled with my 2012 FJ Cruiser alternator for a half hour, before I found this video. Thanks for taking the time to make this video… Huge Help!

Thanks for this video. Its the only one I can find with a Gen. 5 engine. I need to replace the oil line that goes from the cylinder head and disappears somewhere behind the alternator. I can almost see where it attaches in some of your video footage and confirms I need to remove my alternator. Thank you!

I have an fj cruiser and 2010-2014 has the same bracket and 12mm bolt... was trying to access from in front of the strut... I almost threw in the towel then I found this video. Thanks so much you saved my ass.

I definitely owe you a beer, after watching 3 videos of people pulling the 2 front bolts and dropping the alternator I was getting pretty pissed about wtf mine was "stuck". As another comment noted, I went the route of removing the bracket to the block bolt. Thanks a lot for posting this.

Thank you so much I faught with that thing watched you Video 5 minutes later it was off

I was able to get it from the top. But this video was very helpful. I could not figure out why the alternator wouldn't come out at first. I figured there must be another connection. This pointed me in that direction. Thanks.

Thanks for posting this video. Did not have to remove the wheel but it would have been easier if I had. I was able to just turn it to full lock and get access. I wonder if that rear lower bracket is even needed. Might have been something to help with the factory build.

We know about schools in Suffolk co.. Teachers only care what they say and FU234 everybody else. 100% Failures.

1% of the World's Population believes this nonsense -- yet it's shoved down our throat daily!

Thank you for the tips, and how many miles dose your 4runner have for the alternator to go out? Mine is 225,000 miles.

to passing ethics? lol i know this is a show and all but that definitely is not ethics. this is opposite of ethics.

Thanks for posting this. I just finished swapping out the alternator on my 2010 and never would have thought to take that route to get to the bolt on the back.

Just shows you just how upserd the world has gone with free speech

I am really going to miss this show

Never back down to SJWs

My only tip is you really should have splurged for the genuine Toyota alternator. With such a difficult component to replace, replacing it with a genuine Toyota part should have been on the to-do list.

What episode is this?

Superb.

This video saved my ass big time, I never would have dreamed of a third bolt. This is identical to a 2010 FJ Cruiser. Earlier FJ cruisers do not have the backside bolt according to all of the videos I found on KZbin.

I gave the new Mandy a look see but eventually just had to stop watching.
