1970 Ford 302 Starter Replacement
I have a 1966 f100 project in the works.
I bought it about 15 years ago and it had some work done previously.
It has a 1980 302 from a full "size ford" with a manual 3 speed.
It has a 1970 starter with number D0AF-11131-D stamped on it.
This set up has worked well until now.
Does anyone know what new starter will replace this one since it is apparently discontinued?
Thanks

Pull the starter, take it to an automotive electrical shop, and have them rebuild it.
But, I cannot imagine that a good auto parts store, like NAPA, or else Jeggs or Summit could not provide you with a starter that would work.
BTW, that number is only an engineering number, not a part number.

Mr Buzzard I really appreciate your quick response. I believe I will take the old one to get her rebuilt then stop by NAPA and see if they can find a new one so I have a back up.
The fact that was a an engineering number explains my quandary. I couldn't believe there were so many compatible numbers for a 1970 302 but none never ever listed the one I had.
Much appreciated.

Jeff,
If you haven't already found a starter or got the original rebuilt we have some options for you.
With this being a 3-speed manual that should take a 3/8 in. offset starter which would be for a 164 tooth flywheel. We put together a group of options for that here. These replace OEM starters with a "nose" that extends 2 in. past the mounting surface.
Now if this has a 157 tooth flywheel that would take a 3/4 in. offset starter. For that, you would want to look at the options here. These replace OEM starters with a "nose" that extends 2 3/8 in. past the mounting surface.
