jmc1986mj Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 1986 MJ, 2.5L, 5-spd, 4wd... Trying to replace starter, but my open end wrench is starting to round off one bolt and I can't get a socket around it either. (Bolt is too close to bell housing cover???) I've had automatic XJ's before, but this sh@t is frustrating... Any ideas? Thanks! (If there is another thread about this, feel free to point it out.) *New MJ Owner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfpackjeeper Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 there is another thread, but I shall answer anyway. you will need a socket, it is called an inverted torx socket. Looks like the star bits but the female, socket end. Without it you will round off the bolt as nothing is quite close enough to do this without rounding it. I will see if I can go find mine to let you know what size in a few, I am not quite sure where it is, neighbor may have it. Just get a set if you have to, worth it imho.
