Did you remove the correct bolts? the ones arrow are the correct ones.

The contacts could have some crap built up on them and that maybe your issue.
Do your accesories work fine when you turn the ignition on?
My new one was the one i had issues getting in i actually broke the reverse cable switch while Forceing it into place. sounds like it needs a good wack to break loose the build up that is holding it on the Transmission. it should just fall right away from the tranny

ya thats what i was hoping, and they do sometimes, the lights will work on and off. but the battery is basically new and when you try and turn it over you hear the click so thats why im guessing its the starter

I would seay you are correct. Mine would click over a few times then finally start. Now it fires right up every time. Smack the old stater with a soft mallet or get a long piece of wood wedge it to the starter and hit the back of that with the hammer(pipe wrench ... you gut the idea. YOU SHOULD NOT BREAK ANYTHING BUT THE CASE AWAY FROM THE TRANNY.. just make sure you hit the Starter
