If you are a larger person, you will need to get the front end into the air so you can move under it. Make certain to block the wheels! I had to take off a bar that ran under my starter before I could completely remove the starter. When I took the starter off, a plate fell to the ground. I didn't know what it went to, so I didn't put it back in. I wound up having to take the starter loose again to replace the plate, turned out it was a shim and was needed to help the starter last as long as possible. Also, the first rebuilt starter I bought was faulty. All in all I had to take the starter loose three times before I was done. Works fantastic now!

Question edited for clarity and terminology.

You never need to take the engine out. It is normally done from underneath with the car on a lift.

Every 6 months must replace starter.
Anon. Do you have to crank the engine over a lot to get the engine started, do you need a tune up? If it a factory stock engine and you are sure it is correct starter and installed properly (with shims if required for meshing gap), makes me think there may be a damaged ring gear on the flywheel/flexplate. Also make sure starter is quality part.
Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

Remove starter from 300touring 2006
Instructions
    • Lift the hood and find the battery. Disconnect both battery cables, starting with the negative cable first. You will need an open-ended wrench to loosen the nuts on the cable ends.
    • 2Jack your Chrysler up. Place it on jack stands, placing the stands under the frame. Locate the old starter on the bottom of the engine. Remove the heat shield from around the starter and remove the two wires running to the starter.
    • 3
    • Remove the three bolts holding the starter to the engine. Turn the starter toward the engine and pull the starter out. The starter must be in the right position to get it past the motor mount. Work the starter down and out, then lay it aside. The starter has a core value you will get back when you return it to where you purchased it.
    • 4Work the new starter back up past the motor mount and put the starter in place. Be sure to line up the starter shim and replace all three bolts. You will need a socket and extension and a ratchet to replace the bolts.
    • 5Replace the two wires to the starter. Double check all bolts to ensure they are tight. Replace the heat shield around the starter. Jack up the vehicle and remove the jack stands from under the frame. Let the car down.
    • 6Clean both battery cable ends. Replace them on the battery and tighten with a wrench.
