You can also try jumping the starter its self. just put pos. to pos. neg to neg. and see what happens. On the 89 chassis its a shorty bolt on the lower right of the starter, and a long bolt coming from the engine compartment with a nut on the tranny side(upper left starter bolt). If you wedge a wrench on the bolt side and let it turn aginst the engine block, you can crank the **** out of it from the tranny side.

Yeah, you would have to push that fu@ker forever! ROFLMAO.
A 12 point, 14mm socket w/ a breaker bar should do it, after you have snugged up the wrench against the block, on the engine compartment side. The nut should come off the tranny side with ease and leave you with no nuckle busters
