haha ya your good. tell me if this would work as a much easyier fix cuz I dont really wanna mess up my engine doin all that. How about if I modify the new alternator so on that side of it I cut out a spot just big enough to fit the bolt into the hole from the side then tighten it down really hard.

What would hold the alternator in place if the bolt can come out the side?
