Re: 1988 K2500 350 4x4 starter replacment
Installing shims moves the starter gear away from flywheel.
If starter is to tight or to lose you will get extra starter noise.
If it starts good with no extra noise it is good like it is.
Did old starter have shims?
Did the new starter come with instructions on shims AND CHECKING CLEARANCE?
There is a way to check clearance but it is a pain to do.
You have to remove splash shield and inset the special rod/pin tool that comes with most shim kits and and check with starter drive engaged.
