So I've been putting off getting a new starter for a while now, even though starting has been getting noticeably slower for the past couple weeks. Finally, last night at about 9 pm I got back in the truck after a run and got nothing. Bang on the starter with the trusty vise-grips.... still nothing. So after my 5 mile run, I get to hoof it about a mile to the nearest parts house (autozone) where to my delight they have one lone starter in stock. $200 and a mile of toting that heavy ******* later I get back to the truck and am slightly disappointed to find that my new unit is considerably smaller than the old one. So i hook the new one up, hop in the cab, hit the key and HOLY F%&* that thing turns FAST! I like it!
I'm more excited that I did things pretty close to the right way the first time this time!
