Do you have to remove the mounting bracket when replacing the alternator in a 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe?
No, you do not have to remove the bracket to remove and replace the alternator. There are the two main bolts under the alternator which thread into the bracket on the back side that hold the alternator in place. After that, only a 13mm nut securing a wire (back side) and a plug (bottom, back side) which has 4-6 wires. To loosen the alternator belt (which may be confusing you) you must put a wrench or socket on the tensioner pulley and pry counter clock-wise. This will allow you to slip the belt off of the alternator pulley (should be done first during removal, last during replacement)
