The teeth are fine. Have not replaced anything. It has a shim but actually needs to be adjusted for deeper gear tooth contact. Solenoid works (but is probably too weak).

To shorten the story, starter would spin but engine would not turn because bendix was not engaging flexplate. I remove plug and pushed on lever and that started truck but now bendix stays engaged to flexplate at all times.

It starts every time now but the bending won’t fall back from the flex plate. A considerable spring force is pushing it there. Energizing the solenoid several times did not help. I probably did not understand your reply correctly.

998 with 6.5. The starter bracket is in place and tight. Connections at starter and chassis are clean and tight, but I should have worked on battery connections more before I ended up where I am currently. It has more bendix to flexplate clearance than is should (less than ideal gear...

No replacement for Jwade materialized? Jwade was trying to help me out with something... Anyone have a GP customer service contact who has gotten work done?

Headlights occasionally turn off when going over bumps. Both headlights simultaneously. Dash lights not affected. Alternator voltage not changing. Where does the chassis harness to which the hood harness connects to get a ground?

Approx. how much was mileage effected?

Also interested in answer to this.

Looks like minimal access to the inside (I took a quick glance this morning without actually getting under it and only noticed 4 drain holes at the bottoms of the frame rails). Anyone done anything to coat the inside of the frame? If yes, what did you use? Did you have the body tub on the frame?

Thanks. There's no added load. Each time it has happened, increasing the RPM did not help. Just randomly there is no charging starting from the moment I crank the engine. At other times everything is fine. I have not yet seen it stop working while driving. For some reason whether or not the...

Most of the time my alternator works, with voltage across the batts at around 27.4 V (and the dash voltage gauge in green). But sometimes the voltage is down to the batt voltage. (All the connections are clean and tight. The batteries are a couple of months old interstates from Costco. The...
