contact Steve@B&B, since you're south of the 49th !! Big question is it a REAL 12 volt starter ,or actually a 6 volt unit ? Tag number will tell. After Steve, call around for a rebuilder as NAPA are just a 'counter'. A proper rebuild will have all new bearings, brushes, etc. My CA ( '51?? ) , I just needed to rebuild the push starter guts. ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

I just had mine rebuilt by Fort Worth Starter and Generator (and the generator). They had no issues or difficulties getting parts or doing the work. The labor was around $86. The generator ran around $350 total. I had planned on rewinding the generator, but he elected to get new parts instead. The starter only needed some minor cleaning and bearing work.

I did that myself before I sent it off for rebuild. I also partly cleaned it up beforehand to reduce the work some.

Do a google search for "starter and alternator repair" in your town. There are still small shops that do that. It's where I take all of my starters and generators. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |
