Flywheels?
Has anyone heard of flywheel problems with 09-10's. Talking to a person today with a 09 and he loves the truck, but has had numourous flywheels put in very few miles. I frequent this site and have never seen or heard of anyone replacing a flywheel. lets hear it if you have. To me sounds like a misdrilled started mounting pad and starter is misalighned.

Someone has a flywheel in a new f-150? How can I get a manual trans? I want one!
- Of course I'm being fecitious... What I am sure you meant to say was "flex plate", as flywheels are only on manual transmissions, which, sadly, are no longer offered in half tons...
I would have to agree with the assumption that something else is off... I don't know if there are shims on these starters (probably not) but if so, that is most likely the culprt, although something in the ignition switch could be causing the starter to not fully engage or dis-engage. Do you know if they have replaced the starter at all?
