Remove the right front wheel and splash guard (rubber curtain) the starter will be right in front of you. You can not remove it from the bottom of the truck, it will not fit out that way. From the wheel well you will still need to manuever it around a bit, but that is how it comes out.
step 1 - buy a Haynes manual for this truck. You may be able to borrow it from your local library. It is very helpful, and usually more detailed than a Chilton. From memory- Disconnect the negative battery cable. Jack the pass front and remove that wheel. Makes getting to the starter much easier. Disconnect starter cables. Remove bolts. Installation is reverse. long socket extensions are helpful. I was happy to get this done in 2 hours. Take your time. 250k miles on my '96 and it went smoothly. -Dylan
