Alternator Bracket 1.8L '86
 
Just wondering if anyone has any experience getting the bracket off? I snapped the bolt inside and I need to get the bracket off to drill it out. Wondering if the nut and bolt that hold the timing belt cover on also holds that bracket on?

if im correct there's 3 bolts that hold the bracket to the block, 2 bolts for the bracket which holds the alternator, which bolt specifically are you referring to? Are you talking abou the bolt on the bottom of the bracket that sits in the block?

I have the one on the front of the block off. I was wondering what was holding it onto the side of the block. To late though I used a hack saw, cut it in half so I would only need to get the one bolt off to get that bracket off then drilled out the snapped off screw, now I am trying to find a replacement alternator at a decent price and get the hole I drilled out filled and redrilled and tapped to fit the bolt I have to buy as well.
