Starter goes one again

[HotBoxSHO]

My starter just went south, I have to bang on it with a tire iron to get it to turn over. The car will be in the newspaper on friday, so I really need to get it switched tomorrow. The starter's under warranty but the labor is not, any advise on how to do this myself, can I do it with just a ratchet and extentions?

Pretty much. Mine was a pain because the bolt that held the negative cable to the stud siezed, so I just improvised. I could do it in 30 minutes or so now.

Yup, with 13mm and 15mm sockets, it can be done in 1/2 hour or less.
