I need to replace the starter in my 1998 Blazer, 4wd, 4 door, LS. I've read online everything from it taking 1/2 hour, to all day. Some say the motormount has to be removed and the engine jacked up to get it out, others say that's not the case and that it's a breeze.

Who's right? How hard is it?

Thanks

I have'nt done one in a while, but I remember them being a pretty simple repair. Don't forget to disconnect the battery!

very easy job in my 2wd. dunno if the 4wd is much different though...

Chilton flat rate for 4WD starter replacement is .6 hours and add .3 if it has a skid plate, (under an hour either way).
