88pathoffroad Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Try looking in the Garage - "How-To" section for your answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey.T Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 10mm socket for the skid plate and + battery terminal, 14mm socket and a couple of extensions for the 2 bolts holding the starter in place. Once its loose, remove the connection to the Oil Sending Unit... turn the starter so the solenoid is in the 12 o'clock position and slide it forward over the Center Link... takes me about 15 min and that includes washing my hands after words....

cretan Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 Was under the truck today and it looked very difficult to remove.Your reply makes it sound easy to do.thanks for the Tip!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagwoodzz Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 It's not difficult, just not fun. Very limited work space and dirty. If you can cover your starter before you change your oil filter you will get a longer life out of it. Both of my starters have died within a week of an oil change. Coincident? I think not.
