CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW TO GET THE STARTER OUT OF THE TRAILBLAZER. ONE BOLT OUT OF REACH.

 

Hey epithelium~
I took the starter off my scrambler 3 times today because the dang thing wouldn't work!! I'm not sure if your starter assembly is the same as on my Scrambler, but I am gonna assume it is. What I do is leave the starter on the mounting bracket and remove the 2 bolts that hold the bracket on. To reach the one bolt at the top, I use a craftsman wrench. It's a 10mm with one open side and the enclosed side is a ratchet. It has very tight ratcheting so you don't have to move it much to make it click into the next gear. Perfect for those tight situations! That's the only thing I have found to reach that top bolt...unless you want to take the whole clutch assembly off and then it's right out in the open!! I opt for the wrench. Oh, when you put the starter back in the machine, be patient! It is a real pain in the A$$ getting those bolts back in! If you have any more questions, just keep on asking them!
