The starter is located just behind the V-8 engine and on the top side behind the

firewall. This is a time consuming job if you want to do it yourself -- that's what other 92' LS 400 owner told me,

He told me he had to take down the transmission in order to access the bolts of the starter !!!

In order to separate the transmission, you have to take off the drive shaft as well !!!

Also one reminder, CHANGE THE POSITIVE battery cable which links the starter AT THE SAME TIME because you don't want to change the cable for all this hassles .....

'good luck'

You have to get to it from under the car. You will have to remove the splash guard and loosen the anti-sway (torsion) bar mounts. It has it's own tensioner, just back off the nut to loosen the belt. After that, it's just a matter of disconnecting it. The top bolt on which it hangs is a pain to get to. You will need a helper to reach it from the top. Also, it's easier to unmount it first so that you can turn it around to disconnect the electrical connectors.
