My starter hung-up a couple of weeks ago. Did a search on the good 'ole TDR and found that it was caused by uneven wear on the starter contacts sticking the relay plunger that could eventually burn up the starter (~$260. 00). (The starter wire side contact was worn 3 times as much as the battery wire contact. )



Bought the LarryB starter contacts. Disconnected battery grounds, removed the starter, installed the new contacts with plunger, re-installed the starter and re-hooked the batteries in less than 45 min. All you need is a 10mm 12point socket, 15mm and 17mm wrenches and a phillips screwdriver.



Thanks Larry.
 
I also did the same install with Larry B's supersize contacts and plunger this weekend. I had the same uneven wear on one of the contacts with 125,000 miles on the starter. One contact was worn down almost wafer thin... . would not have been long before it failed. It is good to hear the eneven wear was the same on someone else's truck, I was a little worried about that. Good product and easy fix.
