1993 GW 24ft Explorer 5.7L GM/Volvo DP needs starter replacement. Has anyone been able to change starter without removing engine?

I have the 5.7, but it's an OMC with FWC. You will have to remove the right side exhaust manifold and the sill that borders the engine cover. Disconnect the battery first.
A kid with skinny long arms really helps for that inboard bolt!!

Don't forget to mark the solonoid wires, and write it down.

good luck!!
