Need a new starter for my 1991 HZJ75. (1 Viewer)

[NuchatlitzRod]

I haven't used Mud much and I'm not sure the right way to post this to get some help, but here goes it.

I have a 1991 HZJ75 LHD. I swapped a 1HD-T turbo into it to replace the 1HD. It won't start now and I think I've narrowed it down to a faulty starter. I've seen someone advertising new NipponDenso starters for the 70 series and although little bit pricey, maybe the way to go. Someone told me I could use a Cummins 6BT starter and modify it for the 75 and that would be cheaper. Anyone with any thoughts on this?

I'v tried that before. The car came out of Honduras and the VIN isn't recognized. When I put in the part number to search , most of the dealers don't carry it or it's discontinued. There may be someone out there that does have it but it's hard to find. I'll keep trying thanks for the info.

It’s available all day long from any Toyota dealer.

Trust me. Don’t worry about a VIN or applicability. It fits and works for a 1HZ.

Will this same starter work in the 1HD-T? That has a different flywheel does it not?

Just checking as he states in his original post the 1HZ was swapped with a 1HD-T

Either way @NuchatlitzRod if you know of some old-school auto electric shops out there that rebuild alternators and starters, they could rebuild the existing one as well. You know the shop, the one with all the grampa's working in it?? We have one nearby (in the closest city to me) and they have never steered me wrong with any of my rebuild requests. Best of luck getting that machine running!!

Ring gear on flywheel same for 275mm HZ and 300mm HDT.

so yes, it fits both engines.

12v? ...1/2 the volts but .25 the cost of 24v.

We supposedly have an old school rebuilder down here in Portland. That was going to be my route on a 24V unit if/when needed. I'll find the contact info if you investigate that route.

OEM wherever possible and a quick search says the part # Onur posted is only like $200 US bones. But looks like Terrain Tamer has one as well for your analysys.

Starter Motor For 4x4 Vehicles: Rated #1 [2024] - Terrain Tamer - https://www.terraintamer.com/4wd-products/electrical/starter-motors
Terrain Tamer North Amerika - 209-714-4210

12volt solutions
$600 plus for terrain tamer
$200 plus for OEM toyota

and nosecone swap for $100 plus

FYI for those in Tucson, Luna aka Nivel 970 S Campbell Ave, Tucson, AZ 85719 can easily rebuild a 24v starter.

Driving around to dealerships looking to see who has one on shelf will be a waste of time. Call ahead, order that part number for pickup.

is this part number for a 24V?

 

[OGBeno]

No.

24v iteration that is still available: 28100-17050

Would need to come from overseas.

Or you can readily rebuild it using Toyota parts. Just like the alternator you are looking for.

Usually an inoperative starter is down to a worn plunger/contacts, bad earth or bad starter relay. All cheap fixes. The plunger assembly can be removed from the starer unit very easily, though you may need to remove the unit from the engine (I'm not familiar with the 1HZ).
