crap nvm it still does it just not as often now i think the starter is just bad bc now it starts most of the time but every once in a wile it does this same as it did b4 but if i turn the key like four times without starting it and than on like the fourth time actualy start it. It fires right up.

Possible battery bad next time it wont start will hook up jumper cables and see what it does and will take the starter in for a warrenty replacement if this doesnt work.

Also my lights dim when i sit at idle. Could my alternater be going bad?

Sound like i got alot of problems. Reason for this is that i have only owned the truck since like july of this year and the previous owner didnt do much for maintaining the truck all axle seals wear bad front and back. He put ATF fluid in the T-case and Transmission witch was all changed out to Gear oil. He Told me that there was a new clutch in it and 3 weeks later when i was on vacation the clutch went out. The only thing he did do that i noticed was change the oil and flush the cooling system. When i get the money i will be rebuilding the knuckles, add power steering and high steer. All work done by myself
