Practically all the trucks use the 168 tooth flywheel. It has the stagard bolt patern while the smaller flywheel uses a starter with the bolts in line & a bracket at the end. If you like doing stuff yourself those are not hard to work on. Sounds like you need a new starter drive. Clean the starter up & put in a set of brushes. If you buy a reman do not turn in the old starter till the job is done & you are satisfied.
