Hi guys, I had a go at taking off my starter motor last night, but there is basically no room to use a spanner on the bolts to get it off...

So whats the best way to get those bolts undone???

Thanks heaps,
Mike

Use two long extensions ( or more) on your socket rachet and attack it over the top of the gearbox in a straight line.

The brushes ended up being rooted...
