It is a cock sucker to get out, I took the fender inside out but left wheel on with it turned all the way to left. Took me about an hour and a half and I'm just a home mechanic at best. I did drop the one mounting bold on my fucking forehead that hurt a little.
thanks for this, i just finished doing a Head Gasket Job for my girlfriend Tacoma yesterday, that thank God it went well, so she's been barrowing my truck to Do Landscaping with my 2007 Silverado and the starter went out today in the job, with 310,000 miles, I tried hitting it with a hammer and didn't work, very limited where you can strike, we left it at the job, the Auto part should have it by 3pm, then I can go and do it quicker thanks to this Amazing Detail Video, Much Love!!
Good video, pretty straight forward and like you started with, I like to view before I do. I disconnected the battery once on my Silverado and the truck went into limp mode and the dealer had to reset the programming. I since got one of those 9V battery gizmo that plugs into the cigarette lighter to maintain power to the computer. Might save you a trip to the dealer.
To make it easier to get the 13 mm nut for the wire on the starter solenoid take the harness loose from the top of the frame you can pull the starter down easier to get to this nut . This nut is on top of the frame, passengers side, front fender well
Thanks for renoving stuff to simplify the view. But really imo. If anyone feels they need that much space. Perhaps someone else oughta do it for them. If possible. Because removing all that stuff takes longer than the job itself. Thanks. I needed this.
This video is not for an 07 new body style, at least. 07 new body Silverado uses a post for the starter wire, not a plug in. STA0371 is needed, not STA0394.
Do not torque the bolts to 37 ft pounds, I ended up trying to torque them down and I destroyed the threads. Lesson learned, always look at the forums before you go ahead!
Not enough perspective. I cant tell if he's under the hood or under the truck or in the wheel well? Zoom out after the battery disconnect. That's the last time we can tell which way is up

"It's a little tricky to get a torque wrench in there" is mechanic speak for, "I'm not gonna torque that." 😂

Thank you for this! Is it much different with the four-wheel drive?
Mine came out just like yours did. Super Easy!👍🏾👍🏾
My cooler lines are routed differently. No room to come down. Looks like I'll be pulling my exhaust manifold.
Do all trucks have that plug in cable???
I haven’t taken mine out yet but I’m looking online for the part n there’s no plug starter with the plug in
Where can i find the purge line that goes to a small vapor canister for a short bed silverado 1500

+B. I. -EIO MacDonald Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
The video was excellent and perfect. Thanks.
Any issues with the teeth aligning on the gear?
What size is that transmission cover bolt? I need to replace mine, because it's missing.
FYI. If you have a transmission cooler, you will have to get by those lines too. It adds a little complexity but they can move around
Much appreciate for the video. It really helped.
Driver side or passenger
Mine has no plug in, just the two bolts, then the negative post, is that supposed to be connected to something?
I replied my starter today n now nothings turning on. Any ideas?
I wonder if there will ever be a video that actual shows where it is under the hood.
30 ft lb got it nice and snug will do
Thanks for sharing the video, it was helpful. 👍

Cable connector needed to be cleaned. And 30 ft.lbs. is a bit much for cable to solenoid nut.
When it comes to torque, I think of horsepower head bolts rod bolts and Main bearing caps

So who's running the old man atop the ticket now? Uh oh......
37 ft lbs is really just snug enough you cant remove the long bolts easily.
thanks for sharing this video buddy... it was really helpful and I was able to replace the starter by myself 🫡
Thank you! I'm lying on the ground, can't see much of anything, didn't see i can take off the cover and was really mad I couldn't get it down
