Yesterday I replaced the Starter but she still won't start. Is the alternator the problem?

Recently I've done a full tune up, including: water pump, gaskets, oil, spark plugs, cap, wires, exhaust manifold and radiator.

thanks

1. Does the chain of the NP231 move when the car is in 2WD?

2. Can a bad tranny mount trigger a rear main seal leak? I replaced the rear main about 4 months ago and it's leaking again (and yes I'm sure it's the rear main) but my tranny mount is shot, causing some nice vibes. I figure, since the seal sits between the engine and tranny, and the tranny vibrates erratically, it could break that seal quite easily. Am I right in thinking that?

One of the main ideas in getting this jeep was so I could buy bags of feed for ouranimal s and not break my back getting them in and out of the trunk. And GROCERIES. Any ideas on how to get it to open? At first it opened fine. Then I had to lock-unlock the power lock, then sometimes it opened....now not at all. This process took about 6 months. I am frustrated with this and really don't want to take it in for repair. Hope I can find an answer here
