Starter Contact Update Kit

[KHarrower]

Any mail order leads on where to get a starter contact update kit such as mentioned on page 51 of latest TDR issue. I think mine are about to go. Didn't want to have to replace starter/solenoid at $300+ for rebuild.

Description



LarryB's Super Size Starter contacts have approximately 90% more contact area than stock. Designed to carry twice the voltage load for easier starting and last years longer. Our Super Contacts Fit perfectly and are for replacement of sticking and clicking stock starter contacts in 1989 to 2003 Cummins powered Dodge Ram trucks. Is your starter clicking a few times and won't crank? Or worse yet, sticking on? It's very likely worn solenoid contacts. These trucks use a very well built gear reduction starter. Your starter contains two contacts that are usually the only parts in these starters that cause any problems. Usually only one contact gets badly burned but we recommend replacing both while you're in there. You can also get by without replacing the plunger but most starter shops recommend it. Printed INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS are also included with all contacts. Beware of cheap imitations! Fast shipping & absolute satisfaction guarenteed! Visa/MC accepted. Call 253-272-1444

I did LarryB's upgrade as preventive medicine. As it turned out one of my stock contacts was very thin.

I would think a local alternator/strarter rebiuld shop would have them also. Thought I saw somewhere that they are the same ones used on the 24 volt starters.
