starter question

I think it should but will the starter off a 2000 work on a 2003?

I know they show different part numbers when u look them up but i think u can interchange them.

IIREC (??), they are revers compatible only as the 03 has a 3 bolt pattern and the 00 has a two bolt pattern.

And there is your answer.


Thanks for the correction. I'll put it in my Brain. But, as most things in there, they're dust covered.

I knew it was something like that but the dust had covered mine as well. It was a 3 bolt starter.

I was not doing the work but was giving an old one to someone who needed it for an 03

All are interchangeable.
