Removal of serpentine belt: Directly below the alternator you will see a small idler pully, below that a tension pulley on a long trianglular arm. A 3/8 ratchet will fit right into the square hole near the bottm of that arm, pull up and towards you and the belt will go slack, just pop it off the alternator and then slowly let off the pressure on your ratchet (it will snap back with a fair amount of force and pinch your fingers if you let the ratchet slip).
Removal of Alternator: Remove the 8 bolts attaching the two motor mounts to the front of the van, rotate them upwards out of the way. Use a floor jack with a block of wood on top of it to lift on the transmission. This will roll the engine forward (much more safely than putting the van in gear and rolling it forwards). Disconnect the battery then remove the wires from the alternator. Behind the alternator, facing upwards toward the firewall are two bolts (15mm) remove the front one completely, the back one (drivers side) is slotted and only has to be removed half way. Remove the third bolt, the one you can actually see at the front of the alternator. Roll the alternator back out of the front pivot and lift up and out.
Installation : Reverse of removal instructions. There is a diagram of the route the belt takes on the front of the engine, normally on top between water pump and Power Steering pump, occasionally on the front panel by the hod latch.
