93 BLazer Starter Removal

I'm having problems removing the starter on a 93 Blazer 4X4.
Can't remove the shroud cover. Any suggestions ???????
Any short cuts ?

Any advice will help.
Thanks,

Art

Iam having a problem how do I get the starter down after disconecting the wires and unbolting it .
The starter seems too long to get out of this space
What do I have to remove besides the skid plate?

thanks for your help
