Thanks for the updates. Glad to hear everybody likes their 8.3L compressor brackets. Yes, I do sell them on eBay for the same price as here.

I understand the drawing. Let me look at the nose cones available to me and see what I can come up with. Our starters are rated down to -40. Hold tight, I’ll respond in a day or so. You’ll have to either unplug or jumper the thermal connector on the vehicle harness side.

I’ll just leave this here.... http://www.bikersrights.com/nhtsa/notapproved.html

Dimensionally, they are 1/3 smaller, so it fits in the envelop space with ease. The conquest is clocking of the solenoid so it does not hit the block or frame.

Good luck. News said 400 bills on his desk right now. Feel sorry it is so hard for you guys.

There can be. I make them. Have not configured one for it yet. Need to see some pics of the mount and environment to configure solenoid position. Yes, 12v or 24v.

Gear reduction starters are 29lbs. If he can post some pics, I can make him one up and send it to him.

There is no such thing as “DOT approved”.

Post a few pics of what the starter looks like. Specifically, the mounting flange, and the solenoid location in accordance to this flange. I'll see if I can help you. Can't promise, but will try. I'm not familiar with this vehicle, but I am assuming it uses a Cat 3116 / 3126 type medium duty...

I really wish this guy was my brother. Holiday dinners would be amazing.

The military does not over-engineer everything. A lot of this stuff is lowest bidder which meets spec. In this case, they simply carried forward a decades old alternator design. Part of that design uses an external reference for battery voltage to determine alternator voltage output via the...

The diodes are likely just to suppress any flyback voltage spike when the solenoid is de-energized. They can act like a mini ignition coil. Best prevention steps is to switch to a civilian alternator so it does not over-volt, in addition to renew the PCB solenoids every 10 years. Both easy...

I helped a buddy in the sourcing of materials and welding of such. He designed them while he had his tank off and all apart. Member Tedcat should have them in stock, reach out to him. FYI, your tank will have to come off or your bed will have to be raised if you have a cargo truck to install...

No pic. Invisible bikes? Just kidding. Very nice of you to do, and great timing.

Any on-vehicle pics?

Sorry to hear what happened. This is a classic case of old style solenoid contact welding. As mentioned, it is internal to the solenoid itself. Delco Remy is our competitor. I don't have or know their model numbers/fit chart. No direct fit gear reduction starter from our brand. I have...

Who's rooftop solar panels? I put a 6kW array on my house this spring. Have not paid an electric bill since installation in August, including running A/C. They're awesome. Silent, maintenance and fuel free generators!

Removing the flanges stops the front driveline from spinning. The front prop shaft slip spline joint was worn out on my M925a2, at only 20,000 miles. I back-dated mine to the earlier front prop shaft with the carrier bearing to support the weight of the shaft, rather than the spline joint...
