The alt brackets are pretty self explanatory, the power steering is where most have the issues. Here's a link:

With Photobucket turning into ransomware, most of the PS bracket photos on this site are gone. Fortunately that thread still has one diagram that is useful.

alternator

I pretty well know how the power steering bracket goes back, the main problem is I took the 2 piece alternator bracket apart and am having a mental block on how to hook it back up. I can't find one useful picture online

A/C or non-A/C?

Of course, the diagrams are in your Chassis Service Manual.

This is why I have a cheap digital camera, So when you are putting it back the foggy memory only has to look at photo's..

Most cell phones are equipped with a camera.

True.. but the first time you factory reset it, and loose them all.. fun times..
I was mid way through putting my 1966 tempest back together and The phone service , advised I do a reset on phone to see if it fixed the issue I was having..
I did fix it, but my photo's went poof
My fault.. Should've backed them up to computer.. or had the phone settings so photo's went to the memory card.. or both.. I tend to learn the hard way.. Sometimes twice..

Well, a) not on my Android phone - the photos go to the memory card, which isn't affected by a factory reset, and b) why exactly do you need to reset your phone that often? My current phone hasn't needed it in the two years that I've had it so far.

Mine is a droid.. but not saving photo's to card was my mistake..
The reset was because after 3-5 o/s updates. it got slow..
Reset then let it update just the o/s first it was 10x faster.. my phone is going on 6 years old..
Now it is set that it doesn't automaticly update every app. I pick.. no point of updats on crap I don't use..
It's my first smart phone. as I'd not call my blackberry before it much of a smart phone.. internet wise. it was slow..
