Starter Contacts Installed

Big Thanks to the Cummins Crew for Saving me a chunk of $ and maybe by Truck. I thought the sticking starter was from a malfunctioning remote starter, but the problem continued even after I disconnected the remote. A quick site search gave me the scary answer and a cheap solution. Larry B's Super Size Contacts, Plunger Kit and about 2 hrs of Snowy Driveway wrenchen and she up and running. Thank Again

They do work pretty slick. Great products.

If you haven't replaced the alternator brushes you might want to look into those also.

How did you enjoy the "gorilla tightened" top bolt?

Good catch on a very bad thing.

I think if you loosen the top bolt first they are not so bad. Just a hint for others.

I still have a red mark across my chest from the frame, it was a tight fit and a tough pull , but well worth the peace of mind.

I ordered and received mine about a week ago but havent been brave enough to go out and lie on my back in this weather to do them
I would also like to add for anyone in Canada that is interested, they are great guys to deal with and dont charge a arm and a leg for very fast shipping.

Another reason to use Larry B www.fostertruck.com is that his two teenage daughters run the business.
Great experience for them.

The service was great! I placed my order on Wednesday and recieved it on Saturday. Thats West Coast to East Coast in 3 days, with shipping charges under $6.00. I can think of a quite a few places that could use service like that
