An answeer to my question about starter in 142 140-160

Well dog gonnit.. I'm still gonna disagree. It can't be done. You must have them special 'rubberman' made bolts. Mine didn't have a prayer of going in even with the transmission hanging.

Potential differences though...

Mine was a M410.
I've got stiffer 164 motor mounts.
I was angry.
I was in a hurry.
It was really cold out.
I was really pissed off by that time.
I couldn't feel my hands.
It was really cold.
I was getting mad.
Snow kept falling in my eyes.
etc...

Good job on taking the time to finish it up right.

Cheers!
