Now I have to leave my truck in a parking lot till tomorrow. Step-dad is going to pick up a starter for me so we can replace it but I have no idea how.
Can anyone tell (or post pics) of how to change one?
Thanks...

dont know if you have checked this or not, but check the battery wire connection at the starter. i had similar situation once, cold and at night, so i got permission to leave truck gas station parking lot. next morning took battery & alt. to get checked (both ok). so when crawling under the truck to "TAP" on the starter, i noticed the battery wire to the starter was loose. tightened the nut...and the parking lot repair finished and down the road i went!! FROZEN BUTT and $0 repair bill.......(almost) priceless!!!!
