Ok, so finally got a new alternator yesterday (buddy who is parts guy at a Ford dealer hooked me up with a Motorcraft rebuild for a steal). I got the old one pulled (fun...), but not without issue. The ground pin (I'm assuming) broke off, and now I have the nut and stud firmly on the green cable. Soaked it in PB Blaster, and hopefully sitting overnight and tomorrow, it will come apart. If not, Dremel it is!

Oh, and fawk you Haynes. You make it sound so easy in you shop manual...
