A starter will only grind for a few reasons… no flexplate teeth weak solenoid bad bendix gear missing teeth on the bendix have someone attempt to start the truck while you observe the bendix gear working, obviously you need to pull the inspection cover to do this. A seized motor wont grind the...

“EUC” times are what they are…and nothing speeds them up, I buy a truck a week for years, the times ebb and flow.
