Cressida... starter installation - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Any Cressida owners out there ? I've got one and it needs a new starter. The book says it is a 2.6 hr job... Anyone know how to go about this as one of the starter bolts is very difficult to get to. Any help is appreciated

Any Cressida owners out there that have changed their starter? I have the same problem as "brokndown"

Yep, the starter is quite tricky I've heard, never tackled it personally though. I remember reading somewhere that the right number and combinations of extensions might get 'er done.

Just got the starter out, all it takes is two 14 wrench, one for each side of the bolt. For the tricky bolt, use a reversable wrench so you dont have to continue taking the wrench off and finding the bolt again.
