starter on ford f250 Sign In

im trying to change my starter on my 1985 ford f 250 truck with a 6.9 liter diseal i have took the bottom bolts out from underneith the starter i found a 3rd bolt behind the starter i took out yet the starter still wont come out my question is do you have to take any of the bail housing bolts out of the transmission to remove the starter thats the only bolts i see left to get it off thanks

Going off memory there only 2 or 3 bolts that bolt the starter on. There is actually and adaptor plate between the engine & transmission the starter bolts to. (had to change one in a parking lot)

Just take the bolts out & the starter will come out, you may have to give it a rap with a hammer. If you are unsure of where the bolts are at, just look at the new starter.

Don't you have the new starter to look at?
