Product Details

The DENSO 280-5381 First Time Fit® Remanufactured Starter Motor is a professional-grade replacement starter built to factory-original performance standards. Backed by DENSO's decades of experience as an OEM supplier to major automakers, this gear-reduction starter delivers reliable cranking power in all weather conditions and is engineered to meet or exceed original manufacturer specifications.

Every DENSO remanufactured starter undergoes a comprehensive, multi-stage rebuild process. Armatures and field coils are high-voltage tested, commutators are refinished and performance-validated, and the housing is re-tapped to OE standards and inspected for heat warping, corrosion, and surface alignment issues. Each unit is then rigorously bench-tested before leaving the facility, resulting in some of the lowest return rates in the replacement aftermarket.

Key Features:

  • High-voltage tested armature and field coils for verified electrical reliability
  • Premium copper terminals and fasteners for a clean, low-resistance electrical connection
  • All-new bearings, brushes, and seals for extended service life
  • Commutator refinished and performance-validated to factory standards
  • Housing re-tapped to OE specs and inspected for warping and corrosion
  • Gear-reduction design — compact, lightweight, and built for maximum cranking torque
  • Engineered for extreme temperatures — reliable cold-weather starts and hot-soak performance

Cross-Reference Part Numbers:

  • Chrysler / Mopar: 04801269AB, 04801269AD, 4801269AB, 4801269AD, 8000160, 8000243
  • Remy: 26070
  • Wilson: 91-01-4731
  • Bosch: SR6471X
  • Lester / BBB Industries / MPA / USA Industries: 6763, 6763S
  • ACDelco: 8000160, 8000243

Remanufactured starters offer excellent value without sacrificing quality — and by recovering and reusing serviceable cores and raw materials, they represent the environmentally responsible choice as well. The DENSO First Time Fit® promise means proper fitment and factory-level performance right out of the box.
