    Searched but its kind of odd. When I bought my truck Ot made it home under its own power but wouldnt start later. Got under it after checking other things and realized on the ride home the starter had called out and only the wires kept me from loosing it. Anyway, I only have one starter bolt left and I need to know how long they all need to be. I can figure out thread pitch but idk if all the bolts are the same length or not. Thanks for any help guys!

    Not sure on starter bolt length, but it's good that the starter called out and you heard it :D If you had not heard the call you may have ended up losing it.

    Just measure how deep the hole the bolt goes into is then see if it bottoms out or if the hole goes through and where the threads are. Then you can measure the starter and you will know how long the bolt (or bolts) should be.
