Mmm, sounds shady then.
I know on my '95 Explorer with the OHV 4.0L V6 it took me less than 5 minutes to take the alternator off and then put it back on. The SOHC 4.0L V6 will be slightly longer, as well as the 5.0L V8. Either way she got ripped hard, too bad it doesn't sound like she can do anything about it. Good luck.
