Starters for grinding ring gears | Diesel Truck Forum ...
Kevin 007. Hey so it seems rather common for our idi's to develop the occasional starter/ring gear grind; I believe its due to the fact that our engines seem to stop in the same 3 positions and wear occurs mostly in those areas. Anyways, I put in a new clutch, flywheel and ring gear last year and its already starting to develop a grinding issue.
