DB Electrical starter

Ford 7.3 Diesel Starter Powerstroke Truck High Torque 2001-06 SND0355: SND0355 / 17802 DB Electrical Starter-Alternator

This thing is bad a$$.....150.00 shipped to your door....ordered thurs night and got a tracking # 8:30 fri morning so service is great too

I just tap the key and she fires right up(even with the batteries on the way out)....Tayln was here helping me hold the starter up while I was connecting the wires(thing weighs about 20lbs)

he took a couple pics of it with the old toasted one.....so I am sure he will post them later

I think he is going to pull his valve seals so he can blow smoke

Wow that price is unblievably low. At least compared to NAPA in Canada.
How does it compare in cost to jobber oroem in the States?

I am about to pull my starter (tonight) and bring it to a local rebuilder, but at that price I may order one from DB.

I'll post some pics tomorrow when i'm at the college.
The difference is crazy!
It barely turns over before it starts now.
I don't know how that makes a difference, but just touch the key and it was on.

that is how mine starts also. i think it turns that little bit faster witch is faster oil and fuel pressure and than we get a faster and better start up.

That thing is big! DB would be wise to put a comparison picture on their website! I might have bought on from them had I seen that comparison 6 months ago. Instead I bought Napa's crap!
