Did you have to do anything special like greasing when you rebuilt? I bought the same kit and am getting ready to dive into it.Hi, my starter is going out, looking for OEM rebuild kit, starter number 28100-66040-84
Thank you
If just replacing the contacts and plunger, nothing to grease in that (solenoid) area.
IME the grease in the armature bearings as well as the OSGR area (gears/bearings) drys up after 20+ years. If your starter is not that old (-84 rebuild), then it could be OK for awhile more.
It's a lot more work to pull the starter apart, but IMO worth the effort to clean out the old grease from the gears and bearings and stuff some synthetic base Moly fortified grease into there.
For the armature bearings you would want to either replace the bearings, or pop off one seal carefully using a small pick, clean out the old grease, and regrease using something like Mobil PolyRex EM and put the seals back on. FWIW.
Here's an old thread to give you an idea what an original starter look like after
