Did you click on the diagrams in the above post? The guide is a generic instruction to help you see what you are getting into with the specific instructions in the diagrams below. I did notice not all diagrams were uploaded so I have reuploaded all diagrams for the starter replacement for your truck. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
