DENSO 280-5302 First Time Fit Remanufactured Starter Motor

The DENSO 280-5302 First Time Fit® Remanufactured Starter Motor delivers factory-original cranking performance backed by DENSO's decades of experience as a Tier 1 OEM supplier. Built on the same gear-reduction technology that DENSO pioneered for the world's automakers — and respected enough to be adapted for racing applications — this remanufactured unit is engineered to meet or exceed all original manufacturer specifications.

Every 280-5302 starter undergoes a rigorous multi-stage remanufacturing and validation process designed to produce the lowest return rates in the replacement aftermarket. Key internal components are inspected, tested, refinished, or replaced to ensure long-term reliability from the moment it's installed.

Key Features:

• High-voltage tested armature and field coils — verified for reliable electrical performance under demanding conditions
• Premium copper terminals and fasteners — replated or replaced to ensure a clean, corrosion-resistant source of electrical current
• Commutator refinished and performance-validated — polished, gauged, and tested to OE tolerances
• Pinion gear inspected and replaced as needed — meets original engineering specifications
• Housing re-tapped to OE standards — checked for heat warping, corrosion, and surface alignment, then refinished
• All-new bearings, brushes, and seals — fresh wear components for maximum service life
• Bench-tested to factory-original performance standards — every unit validated before leaving the facility

Benefits:

• Maximum cranking torque under all operating conditions
• Compact, lightweight gear-reduction design — a class leader in size and weight
• Engineered to start reliably in both extreme cold and extreme heat
