Ok....Tried to swap out my alternator on 2005 Maxima with one of those mobile mechanic(Craigslist) helping me. Got stuck because the long alternator bolt was rusted and probably seized up...wasted nearly two hours and paid dude $40 buck to swap out my malfunctioning radiator fan assembly. Now my only choice is to take her into shop and pay an arm/leg just to swap out the alternator. Local shop wanted $500 initially and I was able to wiggle it down $275. Towing vehicle to the shop now(AAA) and hopefully they can address the issue cause that is still my daily driver

Took it to a reputable show and they were able to remove the alternator.....they were able to point out the mistakes made by the mobile mech. The subframe was missing a bolt and the tensioner wasn't replaced correctly; told me not to revert to those guys again
