I am wondering do a M and H use the same starter? I know there is a 2 bolt and 3 bolt. I need a 2 bolt and have one spoted from a M and wondering if it will fit my H? Thanks Paul

Bolts right in. Some differences may be found in the switch location, direction of push/pull.
Two bolt fits two bolt H-M. Putting a clutch type replacement drive on it is also a good idea. JimN

They will interchange though originally some H starters did not have the center armature bearing. I have only seen a couple like that and I added the bearing to them. There are some after market starters that have a drive end housing that do not have the recess and threaded holes to add the bearing. They can cause problems on an M or a high compression H by bending the armature enough to rub while cranking. If you stick with a starter with a Delco tag you should be fine.

I've read of these clutch type starter drives, but haven't been able to find out more about them than that they're a good idea.
Are they available from Case IH or aftermarket?
An idea of how they work?
Thanks, Wm

Thanks Guys!!

Most sources have them. Just make sure it is different than the old original. CaseIH for sure. JimN

Thanks, Jim. I'll check with my local (only two counties away; counties are small here in S.C.) Case IH place next time I'm by there.
