What is the difference between the Mitsubishi starters and the Chrysler starters?
Im pretty sure my renix has the Mitsubishi starter (not positive, havent looked) and it is getting slow. I have a 97 Chrysler starter from my old jeep I was going to clean up and rebuild so I could just quickly swap them and have a spare to rebuild and keep somewhere. I just want to know if there is going to be any problems (different gear teeth, etc) before I spend the money to rebuild.

I used a starter out of a 97+ on my 96 and the electrical leads connect to the starter had to be modified(bent) to hook up correctly. I've since replaced that starter with one for my year from orielly's and had to bend it back to original form. Havent had any problems from bending it

check your connections. Made the same mistake, replaced starter and it was still slow. refreshed connections and it worked like new...
