civillian starter

[Rakes67]

Ok Im looking for a 12V starter and I see on here where guys talk about a civillian starter for FSJ with the 230,what part stores are you going to because all the ones I call say they dont make them?

I don't think you'll be able to get one at any of the parts stores like NAPA, Autozone, Pep Boys, etc. They may give you one for a 232 and it isn't going to work. Time to start scrounging aruond boneyards with old cars/trucks or Ebay.

You'll have to get one from a member, or do a rebuild. The only one I could find was in N.Y. at around $175+ shipping to Md. Brute4c had one, saved my A$$ bigtime! Someone here will help.

There is a jeep salvage yard just south of Seguin. When I was there a couple of years ago they had dozens of jeeps with the 230 tornado engine in it. Should be a easy source for a starter. John's truck salvage or something like that.

If anyone has one...that is the only one I have ever seen that was worth buying in the first place...

I have the one I took off this year when I went back to 24 Volt. PM me.

It may be possible to take the 24 volt starter to a local rebuilding shop and have them rewind the starter to make it work on 12 volts.
