Bloody alternator still wont come off

[MaccyD]

Ok so ive got the main plug off, the earth lead thats held on with a little nut, the bolt thats used to hold it in position after its adjusted and the big bolt that it hinges on, off. So why oh why will my sodding alternator still not come off, its moving fairly freely but it still seems to be hinging about where the bolt goes through the bottom. Any ideas? I can only assume it needs a very big pry bar, or im missing something obscenely obvious.

Thanks

Where it hinges at the bottom bolt, there is a hole in the bracket it hinges on..Get a bar in there and prise it, or give it a few light taps with an extension bar and mallet. there solid if they havent been out for the cars life.
