This must be done soon, the job looks easy enough except that i cannot see the top bolt, but i'm sure that it's there awaiting me to curse a bit! anyone done this? and is it as easy as it looks! And yes, i leak a bit of oul so none of the bolts will be rusty LOL,

job is pretty straight forward.. just need a 5/16th hex driver and few long extentsions... only 2 bolts... make sure you disconnect the battery leads first... you will take the starter out from the bottom of the truck. While you have it appart I would also replace the positive lead (to the starter) the the ground (which threads into the frame and attaches just behind the front wheel well) $200 for a new OEM starter & $25 for the new cables.. should be about 1 hour 30 min to do all the work...
