Need A Starter

223 straight six 1963 f-100

ok im now very stressed out. the drive on my starter stoped working, i couldnt get it off to fix, so i bought a new one from LMCtruck, it took them a month to get me one, and it is from beck/arnley and does not have a drive,

i need a starter very bad, how do i take my old one apart to look in the drive and bendix.

OR where can i get a starter with a drive, or where can i get a drive, i have the shaft, just nothign that goes on it.

Does anybody have an extra starter that works well for sale,

I also need a shop manual for a 61-63 f-100 does anybody have one for sale?

i am desperate now

i need a starter

I used a starter for a 390 on my 223. Bolted right on, no trouble what-so-ever.

Where you from, young? What auto stores you have around there? Most reputiable houses will have replacement starters for your truck.

Might run into the same problem at a junkyard, young. Armature might be swollen or siezed, especially if things have gotten wet. But you'll at least have a core that can be sent in to be re-manned. NAPA lists it, part number REL449627. $75.99--seems rather high, but there's a possiblility that they have a cheaper line.
