'81 Cherokee Starter Interchangable???

[cellz]

I guess the conclusion is I need a new starter! But I don't know what type it is or if other brands will work. I have a '81 Jeep Cherokee Laredo.Thanks for all your help.

Any 360 equipped FSJ will use the same starter. 75-91 with 360 V-8 & Automatic Tranny

Auto Zone sells a Duralast one for about 28-35 bucks.

They all had the starter solenid on the fenderwell, and the one wire starter.

Chrysler changed the GW to a Mitsubishi-built integral-solenoid mini-starter (along with associated wiring changes) by the 1988 model year, and I believe they changed the flexplate to match. Lighter and smaller, but more expensive to replace.

Is it a gear reduction starter? I've been swapping people's 350 old starters and getting them to get the gear reduction units.. they're awesome!
