Starter removal

Good morning,

Can you upload a picture of the bolt?

It could be the rear support for the starter.

A clashing or grinding condition, may exist, due to improper engagement of the starter to flex-plate on some vehicles equipped with 5.0L/V8-305 & 5.7L/V8-350 engines with automatic transmission. To correct this condition, replace the starter drive assembly, with new drive assembly, part No. 10456422, which utilizes a stiffer jump spring allowing for proper engagement. During starter drive assembly replacement, all ring gear teeth should be inspected. If three or more consecutive teeth are damaged, the flex-plate should be replaced with flex-plate No. 10128414.
