I'm trying to remove the alternator from my 67 427...I have both of the bolts out but the alternator won't come loose from the alt bracket. There is a sleeve sticking out from the back from where the nut went on the bottom bolt. It has a slot running down the length of it. This appears to be what is catching and holding the alt on the alt bracket. I removed the bracket from the engine and now need a good way to remove this sleeve without damaging it.
I've already tried putting a screwdriver down the inside to see if I can catch a lip and tap it out...no luck. Anybody ever have this sleeve in the bracket before?
Also, I'm looking for a good replacement for my alt (it's a 1100750 dated 7C17) until I can get someone to rebuild the original. John, I've looked for a rebuild at all of the places I can think of, no one seems to have one..so far.
Thanks for the help.
