Starter thrust washer

woodman1928 · Aug 14, 2022

On the 9n starter the diagram shows both a thrust washer at the commutator and the base housing.

Dose anyone know what materal these are supposed to be? Leather, fiber, Bronze, steel?

At some point in my starters life someones gone in did a poor rebuild job and never replaced them

woodman1928 ,All of the washers between the commutator and end cap are fiber spacer washers that I have seen.

Woodman, Measure how much end play that you have in the armature shaft ,total end play ,then subtract .010 - .015 the remainder is how thick your shim washer should be.Or just close not thicker fiber washer,leather would work in a pinch.
