changed my contacts today. i did them in a garage on a lift, i didnt remove the exhaust bracket, but all i can say is the more socket extensions and different elbows you have sure does make getting to the bolts way easier!!!! I did remove the transimssion dip stick tube and removed the bolts holding down the brake line to get them out the way.

I am very thankful for finding this post and not just buying a brand new starter. By the way this is the first time my OEM starter has been removed and i had 160,000 miles on it.... I wonder how much longer it will last this time?
