That's interesting.... generally the nut on the alternator case itself will slide in and out. I have a dedicated 1/4" extension that I use for beating shit with.... slide that through the bolt hole, offset it a little and beat on it... or... use the mounting bolt itself, thread it in a few threads and pound away on the head - giggitty
I've swapped many an alternator case from powdercoating and what I've noticed is if the halves aren't PERFECT, it sounds like shit and the bearings will probably go bad quickly. O would take the alt off and make sure the halves are tight and true, it spins very easily by hand, follow the above tip and put everything back together.
Cheers
