You may do this without dropping the starter. Remove the outermost bolt (the one on the passengers side, but only loosen the other bolt. Insert your shim from the passengers side until the shim slildes onto the bolt you barely lossened. Line up the remaining hole in the shim with the remaining bolt and thread it on. Tighten both bolts. You're done. Don't use any more than .45 width in the shims
Assuming you are using the correct bolts for that application, the starter may require shims to align it to the ring gear properly. Originally besides the two bolts on the nose of the starter it would have also had a bracket attached from the front of the starter to the engine block.
Go to the parts store and tell them you need some starter shims for your year truck. Then ask them how they work and they will explain it to you.
