Part Description

This Grade A starter motor was removed from a 1997 Jeep Wrangler equipped with a 4-cylinder 2.5L engine and manual transmission. The starter has been thoroughly inspected by our experienced technicians and is currently on the shelf ready for immediate shipment. This OEM part ensures reliable starting performance for your Jeep.

The starter motor is a critical component that engages the engine’s flywheel to begin the combustion process. Common starter failures include worn brushes, damaged solenoid contacts, or bearing wear that causes grinding noises during startup. When your Jeep won’t start or makes clicking sounds when turning the key, a faulty starter is often the culprit requiring replacement.

I had a great experience. They didn’t just look up the part I needed they took the time to explain how to install it and made sure I understood everything. I even received a call back, which I really appreciated. Everyone I spoke with was friendly and patient, and I never felt brushed off. I truly felt taken care of. Highly recommend if you want knowledgeable people who actually care about helping you. Kristy Thanks Guys!

Drove from Connecticut to get here. Had parts for a relatively rare car that dozens of other places didn't have. I got a hood, fender and bumper cover that were in near mint condition for a fifteen year old car. They pulled all the parts for me and had everything ready within an hour. Very reasonably priced. Highly recommend
