Starter Replacement

[97SHOgt]

I need to replace the starter, how many bolts hold it on, I see 1 and a half (one is busted off so I'll have to drill it out). Are there more? Any other tips?

I know people have replaced starters, anybody give me some guidance?

Is this for a Gen3? If so posting in the correct section will yield better results. Let me know if it is I can move it there for you.

'92 MTX, my bad, still new to me, should have specified.

There is 2 bolts holding the starter in, 1 is a stud that holds the ground wire as well, you need to remove the nut take off the wire and then use a deep socket to remove the stud. Then there is 1 more bolt below that one. On the other side on the solenoid there is a stud with 2 red wires remove that nut and the wires as well as the spade plug and the starter is out. Remember to remove the negative battery cable from the battery before you start.
