So could I cut off the tab? Service manual picture does not show a tab.. Not enough room to come straight off the starter with the tab...Just use a bolt with a washer, ignore the tab on the end.
Thanks.....i'm not there so I'll say cut the tab off, cable on top of brass.
I would have switched to the newer style starter but that's me
And, since my lack knowledge about Fords ( kinda obvious I'm sure) When I bolt the original starter to the original Bell housing, with the original flywheel ( yes its been surfaced) I know this part of the rebuild will function correctly....Annnnnnnnd????
Outstanding selling point,
Really just kidding, Ford used the same basic starter design for what, like thirty years?
@limpAnnnnnnnnd????

I agree 100%, the dump truck has the same starter from the factory, repaired one time by a local shop that's been around for ever, that's 600k miles.@limp
A local rebuild by a electric motor shop who stands behind their work is a wise choice. I had a tech at a stealership that would only put in alternators and starters he rebuilt for reliability sake.
Trim the tab and put the cable on top of the sandwich.
Were good there. What I really need is a bolt thread count for what fits it?? Anyone done this before?? Or do I need some elderly assistance..That copper/brass tongue should move around enough to get the bolt started or take a screw driver and wallow out the hole/slot a little.
You need someone young enough to want to crawl under the car or someone with a lift.Were good there. What I really need is a bolt thread count for what fits it?? Anyone done this before?? Or do I need some elderly assistance..
Don't need to, its on my work bench......You need someone young enough to want to crawl under the car or someone with a lift.
@General karthief 600k miles is a long time for an electrical part!
On my way to the hardware store with the starter AGAIN...I believe it’s a metric bolt
I will buy coffee........ ThanksBring the starter with you to coffee thursday
