Righty, got myself a 55A bosch alternator today. Spent an hour getting faffed one off. Then to my surprise, I found that the lower bracket (the wide one) is too wide by about a millimetre. On the left side of the bracket attached to the engine, there's like a sort of spacer thingy. It's a cylinder of metal, inside the bolt hole, with a split down one side. I can get molegrips on but I can't compress it to get it out or in.
Angle grinder maybe??
