Replacing the starter on a 1999 Nissan Frontier 2.4L w/AT transmission?

I'm willing to spend an entire day carefully replacing my own starter. Will I need one of those Haynes/Chilton manuals for the job?



Anyone with experience changing the starter on this particular model? Any tips or suggestions?

No manual needed however the job is not all that fun. if you do not have 12mm open and box ended wrench 14mm universal wobble sockets and a whole selection of extensions and good wratcher handle. You will run into problems even seeing the top starter bolt. Starter is on the passengers side under the intake manifold you will have to work under and thru the wheel well rubber flap removed. So jack and stands will be needed. two 14mm bolts one 12mm nut holding the big battery wire. and one gray plastic plug. Awakard location heavy compact starter motor. Good Luck
