Put front end on jack stands. DO NOT WORK UNDER CAR WITH ONLY JACK HOLDING IT UP! Your life is worth more than a 20 buck pair of jack stands. Disconnect battery, negative (black) lead first, then positive (red) lead. From under car, locate starter motor. Carefully disconnect electrical cables from built-in solenoid and motor. Remove mounting bolts. Pay attention if lengths are different. Put'em back where they came from. Rock starter back and forth to break it loose. Reverse procedure for installing new starter. BTW - don't waste your money on a rebuilt unless you enjoy changing them every 12 to 18 months. Make sure you return the old starter for your core allowance refund.

    get the old starter tested at a local auto parts store before buying the new one since you will already have it out. it may not be the starter entirely

What are the size of the bolts that go on a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo starter

The size of the bolts that go on the starter of a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo will depend on the model of starter you are using. In general, most starters use bolts that are M6, M8, or M10 in size.
To determine the size of the bolts you need, you will need to refer to the manufacturer's specifications for your particular starter. You can usually find this information in the documentation that came with the starter, or by contacting the manufacturer.
It is also important to note that the starter bolts may not be the same size as the original bolts that came with the vehicle. If you are replacing the starter, make sure to use the correct size bolts as specified by the manufacturer of the starter. Using the wrong size bolts could result in damage to the starter or the vehicle.

Try gently tapping the starter motor with a hammer or bar. There may be a bad contact in the sollenoid or the starter motor brushes worn to their limit. Tapping may give you a tempory fix if the problem lies in the starter motor.

1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo starter

This means it is the solenoid. But usually on those the starter and solenoid are one unit. They can be purchased individually, but it is usually almost as expensive as replacing the whole unit.

Jeep won't turn over

Check for a Starter Relay. If you replace this Relay and it still will not start You will need a new Starter.
