Topic: New Starter?

Well, it's still doing it. It's turning over stronger once it works but it's still giving me a problem.

So, is a 4.0l starter the same? Are the two (4.0l & 2.5l) interchangeable? Also, will a starter from a 1994-00 XJ Cherokee, 2.5L work on my automatic 02?

Do a search on a site like www.partsamerica.com and see what it cross-references to.  I'm sure they're the same though. They use the same (XJ) transmission as well as engine.

I did that. Here's what it came up with.

"This product fits the following vehicles - click on a vehicle to see detailed engine information.
   DODGE           
   2000 - 2001 DAKOTA
   
   JEEP    
   2001 - 2002 WRANGLER"

I don't see any reason it wouldn't be the same part though.

Ok, I found this:

The big question... Will it work for my application?

That is a converted Nippon denso starter, we use those on just about all UPS trucks is about one of the best starters money can buy. If it fits its the way to go. Unless you can find an oem Nippon Denso starter that fits will be a bit cheaper. Some companies make new front castings for these starters so they fit a wider range of applications and of course mark the price up. Either way they are extremely durable starters much better than the original oem starters on most cars when they come from the factory
