my truck wont start. when you turn the key it makes a loud click

i put a wrench on the large nut behind the fan and it turns counter clockwise with little effort. It does not move going clockwise. ive checked relay fuses and none look bad

i have a helper today, the click sound / vibration is in the solinoid, which i replaced yesterday

Recommend *hands-on* assistance from qualified personnel.

its froze up. too old to put a new trans and engine (325k) thanks!

Well I be damn - I was hoping I was wrong on this one! If the truck is in pretty descent shape body wise - I’d check around some of the local salvage yards just to get a price - can’t hurt to check.

unfortunately, i have affairs with my cars, so im sad to see it go.... she was a real work horse and never let me down. The body is not so good, dents and scratches from construction, totally cracked windshield, both windows dont go up or down... im gonna pull all the new parts and get a similar year... thanks though!
