[QUOTE="NotMatt, post: 766206, member: 15947"] Well, I can tell you my experience with the 3.0 starter, which involved two people, a lot of cussing, skinned knuckles and blind guesses. This was on an '88 V6 truck, so basically the same platform, it was a bitch to get the starter back in. Infact, we literally could not get the starter back in where it needed to go without doing the following... If you have a chain hoist or cherry picker, or heck even a bottle jack and a block to put under the oil pan, unbolt the passenger side motor mount, and remove the bracket from the block. It will make accessing and actually being able to see the front of the starter much easier. Makes getting everything lined up and the bolts back in place much easier, and it also makes bolting the battery connections on much easier. Good luck. :) [/QUOTE]
