I've got to pull my starter from my 1985 2LT Diesel. I have the bottom bolt removed, but the top one is a major PITA!! Do I need small hands or a special wrench to get it un-done? Is there an online guide on how to do this? Any tips or considerations?

cheers,
Jeff

 

id say small hands. find a tiny redheaded mechanic and force him into doing it or you'll run him over. haha. yeah ud need tiny hands. only thing i dont like bout yota trucks compared to fords or chevys: not nearly as much work space.

these guys might be able to help and if you find A online FSM for it please send the link to me or post it on my FSM sticky

 

An extension may help. Have you removed the access panel in the wheel well?
