Just bought a denso reman starter for $81 to my door. Arrived yesterday and installing tomorrow. The guy has two more, ask for the denso ones as he has many remans. No affiliation, buy at your own risk.

Where did you tap in for the starter relay you added? Right near the starter or?

As for buying a new starter just buy the cheapest one you can find a DC motor is a DC motor unless you want to pay extra for the magic pixie dust Toyota sprinkles on their parts.
I put 5 NAPA-reman starters on my FJ60 in the mid-90s in 2.5 years. I finally got my money back, and I replaced them with one Denso reman from the dealer (cheaper than NAPA, just to add insult to injury), and it lasted until the truck was totaled by the next owner. The Denso starter also did not sound like it was full of sand when you cranked the engine. I think that speaks for what brand of reman you should seek.
WD40 and warmth.No grease necessary. Removing that boot is a major pain, I just manhandled it. Have not tried this but this might help, warm the boot up with a hair dryer or a heat gun.
If someone has a proven way of getting this buger off, I'm all ears.
EDIT: disconnect the battery first...important!
