Please make a real time video of this, I would love to see it. If not for anything else, then an educational experience!

 

try getting that bolt out with MAC long tube headers....its a whole different story. I'm a technician too btw.

 

I love these same starter threads... Funny as hell... That bolt pissed me off to.

 

Yeah, it really does suck... especially if you have lt's

 

Bolts easy. Like stated above, take off the wheel and you can see the bolt, or lay on you back with you hand going around the starter and on the boltand guide the extension with the socket to your hand and hold it on the bolt. Attach rachet and loosen bolt. done. 10 mins tops.

 

I'm about to tackle this project myself. Can anyone tell me what size socket to use on the starter bolts?

 

13mm i just took it off tonight. Im tropping my tranny as we speak. as stated above, it is easy to take the top bolt out once you get the right set up. whether it be with extentions or thru the wheel well.

 

One word of advice. LEAVE THE TOP BOLT OUT! It'll make it that much easier next time.

 

^+1 i should have done that when i put my new clutch in last winter.

 

whoaaa don't leave the bolt out. do it right. drink a beer or two if you get frustrated, but once you do it once, it will be a breeze the next time. try to use 1/4" tools, they are smaller and easier to fit around. But, like stated, use a U-joint or two with extensions and you will get it. Try to hold a finger on the bolt while you find it with the socket. THEN connect the ratchet. Good luck.

+1 on being a "technician" lol
