• Q: How to reassemble the alternator on 2008 Toyota Avalon?

  A: The generator drive end frame bearing assembly starts by using Special Service Tools (SST): 09950-60010, 09951-00470, 09950-70010, and 09951-07100 with a press before securing the bearing retainer through 4 screws torqued at 2.3 Nm (23 kgf-cm, 20 in-lbf). The assembly process starts with mounting the generator rotor assembly together with the generator washer into the drive end frame. The generator coil assembly goes next by using a deep socket wrench (21 mm) in combination with a press before you fasten it securely with 4 bolts at a torque rating of 5.8 Nm (59 kgf-cm, 51 in-lbf). Install the generator brush holder assembly with two screws that need torquing up to 1.8 Nm (18 kgf-cm, 16 in-lbf) after first inserting a dia1.0 mm (0.039 in.) pin into the holder hole while pushing the brushes inward. Begin terminal insulator installation correctly and follow it up by fastening the generator rear end cover through three nuts torqued at 4.6 Nm (47 kgf-cm, 41 in-lbf). The removal process for the generator with clutch pulley starts by using vise to mount Rotor Shaft Holding Tool SST: 09820-63020 to a stationary rotor shaft position. The generator installation follows using this Special Service Tool according to provided illustrations. Turn the Clutch Pulley Wrench clockwise to loosen the generator pulley with a torque of 87 Nm (891 kgf-cm, 64 ft-lbf) using a torque wrench with a 380 mm (14.96 in.) fulcrum length. The generator needs to be removed from the SST after checking for easy rotation of the pulley to install the new generator pulley cap.
