Wow. Pighead's gear-reduction unit is totally different than mine. Mine is Denso-USA, remanufactured for Toyota on the box, yet it has no indication of ever being used before, as it sports fresh milling marks all over the aluminum casting. Mine has a braided copper lead from the solenoid to the main motor wonderfully exposed to wildlife-pee, conductive materials, rain, etc, without any insulation. I have a hole at the bottom of the motor; I might have two, as there is a funny rubber plug up front; I can shine a flashlight in the open one and see past the motor clutch from the front, maybe I can tap them and install pipe-plugs, or just drain water faster? My solenoid looks like the old solenoids, cylindrical. By now, I probably should be following part numbers? Pighead's, in the thread, 'What You Did to Your Cruiser this Week" post #37,505 shows a starter without a nose-cone (starter drive housing), mine has a closed cast-aluminum nose cone, like the original early 2F equipment, with a bushing to support the armature shaft, behind the flywheel ring-gear. The gear-reduction armature shaft is about .060-inch smaller in diameter than my earlier direct-drive starter motors, iirc. I'm sure it is all-good, but I never stop asking questions after I get a good look at it.
