2000-2006 Toyota Tundra Alternator & Serpentine Belt Replacement. Fastest and Easiest Way!

Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video. I was able to change out my alternator on my 2006 Tundra, but with less steps. I loosened the belt from above the engine, then everything else was from under the engine. I removed the 1 bolt and 2 nuts from the alternator. Then removed the 2 power connectors. Then I removed the two bolts from the power steering pump and only loosened the top nut so it would move enough to get the alternator out by rocking the psp up and towards the passenger side.. Then did everything in reverse to complete the project. My truck stayed on the ground and I did not remove my tire. Less then 2 hours. Thanks again and I hope this helps.

This video probably saved me $500 in labor costs. Aside from the things he suggests here, I also pulled the air breather box. That's only 3 screws, and it gives much better view/access from above. Thanks for taking the video!

Just knocked this out, best video. I would add you mentioned psp bolt was 15mm, my 2 bolts and 1 nut were all 14mm. Went in easier than out for me, took about 2 hours total.

I watched serveral videos preparing myself for this repair, and you've done the best of everyone showing all the angles so I know what I'm up against.

Best video on changing the old Tundra Alternator that I've seen. Great job.

Thank you for sharing the video. I replaced in 1 hr. I just removed the top air filter hose and the bottom black radiator fan’s cover. Made a lot of room for removing Alternator and steering pump’ nuts and bolts. After removing the Alternator from the bottom, turned the Alternator cables face to the ground and unplugged all connections.( don’t have to remove the tire).

Dude, Very good tutorial! I replaced my alternator and serpentine belt yesterday and because I watched this video first it went smoothly and I was relaxed. The only thing that confused me was the allen wrench with the tensioner. I didn't need the allen wrench at all and spent some time trying to figure out why it was needed. Finished completely in 3 hrs. Didn't need to pull a hose, just loosened the PS Pump and wiggled the alternator out carefully. Thank you for posting this video!!!! Great Job!

Great video! I appreciate you showing us where and how you removed the bolts from the alternator! All the other videos just say take these bolts out and jump to them holding the alternator in their hands... not nearly as helpful as your video.

Seriously thank you so much for this video!! Hands down the best tutorial for replacing the alternator and the belt ..did exactly everything and didn't have a bit of trouble , took me a little longer for being my first time but again Thank you for this video !!!

Thank you Mr.Kirk! I need to do this job in 2001 Sequoia and your instruction are what I needed to go forward.
