Check that the pinion teeth are the same ratio as the flywheel teeth. There are differences in pinions . Check that there is not metal stuck in the flywheel teeth. Check that when the starter is in position it is butted up all the way around the housing and is not misaligned by incorrect mounting bolt tension.

Cannot remove starter from 1995 dodge dakota 5.2 all bolts off, will not disengage from transmission.?

Some of these also have a metal bracket at the back of the starter, if not you need a soft faced hammer and give it a solid whack near the back of the starter to loosen it from the bellhousing.

How do i check my break pads on a '93 dodge ram 50?

  1. jack up car
  2. place a stand under car
  3. remove tire ( have a friens stand on breaks )
  4. now remove caliper usually 2 bolts on rear of caliper
  5. break pads normally are 3/4 - 1 inch thick new

replace tire tighten nuts up and go to a mechanic
it might cost a bit but the alternative is a posability and your life or the life of a family of four is worth more than a few bucks
