- Hi listees, What do I have to do to replace my stock starter with a hi-torque model? Do I have to drop the exhaust/carbs or is there a down and dirty way to do it? How do I know if I have a press-on

- Might be different for you, but on TS39781LO I only had to undo the 3 nuts on the headpipe to get the old starter out. Did that a lot before finally buying the gear-drive, so I got pretty good at it

- Forgot to mention, I've got my bellhousing threaded (with a Helicoil) for the upper starter bolt. Otherwise you might need to undo some things to be able to get to that @!#& nut. Last time I dealt wi

- You'll also need some small wiring changes for the gear-drive starter. I wanted to keep the original starter solenoid functional for several reasons, so I moved the heavy starter lead to the same pos

- I guess my mileage varied, so to speak. Of course, I have the bullet nose starter and compression fit ring gear, so that probably makes a difference, but once I have the starter unbolted and disconne

- I'll second that... That nut's a pain in the @$$! I don't know how much different the engine bay configuration of my TR4 is from a TR3, but I made the starter swap by disconnecting and removing the r

- On mine, the gap at the front of the gearbox tunnel lets me get a box wrench in there... then I run a bungee cord from the other end of the wrench to the gear shift lever. This lets it jam as it turn
