Default 98 Suburban wont start

I am currently experiencing an intermittent no-start problem with my 98 Suburban.
It will crank & run fine the first time in the morning, but when I get to work & turn it off & try to restart, it will not turn over. Lights come on, etc
Once it cools down, sometimes up to 4hrs or next day even., it will restart.
When it finally does restart, I can turn it off & re-start numerous times in a row, but after 5 min drive, nothing.
I always have voltage,(lights,a/c fan, windows, locks, etc., all work.) Just won't turn over.

Sounds like a heat issue. Something is getting too hot after the engine runs a few minutes or more. Check the heat shielding around the starter.
