1998 dodge intrepid. Mileage 160,000. I know the starter needs to be replaced. My question is how difficult is it to replace it and where is it located? Is it something that can be done in an hour or two?

I had a customer in the shop just yesterday that is a reasonably handy guy. He and his neighbor spent nine hours on it. An hour or two maybe if your experienced and have a lift.

Suggested Repair

Plan on a difficult starter replacement. A handy owner and helper spent about nine hours; one to two hours is realistic only with experience and a lift.
