How do you remove the alternator from the long upper mount bolt after the nut is removed on a 2002 Cougar V six?
Generalist
The upper mount STUD, after you remove the 15 mm nut, can be unscrewed with a 6 millimeter socket. You could just leave the STUD, loosely, in the alternator hole; then, lower the alternator to take it out. If there is a BOLT in the upper mount, you could fully loosen the BOLT, leave it in the alternator hole, and lower the alternator.
In the lowered position, disconnect the wires from the alternator, and (after disconnecting the end of the tie rod), work the alternator out of the the car. No other disconnections of suspension parts, or drive components, are necessary.

How do you replace the alternator in a 1993 Saturn SC2?
This is relatively easy, you will need to take the vehicles left front tire off, remove the splash panels that protect the engine from water off the road and remove the serpentine belt. The alternator is held in by (2) bolts and its wiring harness. You will need to remove the plastic shroud on the alternator to get to the wires and remove them, it is held onto the alternator by one bolt. When you get the wires off, and the bolts removed, wiggle the old alternator up and down until it come loose from the lower mount. Remove the old alternator through the wheel well, sounds funny, but it will not come out any other way, then insert the new alternator. Pay close attention to the lower mount, it has an adjustable mount that if compressed will make installation of the new unit easier than removing the old one. Bolt in the new alternator, reinstall the wires, shroud and serpentine belt and you are done with the hard stuff. Now reinstall the splash panels and your tire and you are back on the road.
