WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Dodge Sprinter. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Thread decoupler pulley onto generator shaft by hand (right-hand threads).
Position Special Tool #8823 (VM.1048) into decoupler. See Figure.
Determine if end of generator shaft is hex shaped or is splined. See Figure and Figure. If hex is used, insert a 10MM deep socket into tool #8823 (VM.1048). See Fig 1. If splined, insert a 5/16" 6-point hex driver, or a 10MM 12-point triple square driver into tool #8823 (VM.1048). See Fig 2.
Do not use an adjustable, ratcheting "click type" torque wrench. Most "click type" wrenches will only allow torque to be applied in a clockwise rotation. Use a dial-type or beam-type wrench. Tighten in counter-clockwise rotation, see Fig 1 or Fig 2. Refer to SPECIFICATIONS .
Install accessory drive belt, and generator. Refer to REMOVAL .
Connect negative battery cable.
