Tech Notes:
Depending on the conditions, a starter can pull up to 500 amps. These levels of amperage stress ALL components in the circuit including cables, terminals, batteries, and more. Problems with these components can be difficult to diagnose as they appear fine at rest and under a light load, but generate high resistance under heavy amperage draws. This results in low voltage to the starter while cranking, causing heavier amperage draw, and increased heat leading to starter failure. Batteries, cables and additional components should be checked and serviced regularly. Voltage measured at the starter during cranking should always be above 11V DC. Starter heat shields are not required, but are an excellent idea for heat protection.

Xdp starter
kyle (FL) | April 11th, 2026
Bought the starter for my 2015 LML Duramax. Did lots of research and found this one to be the best. They have fast shipping, which made my truck not down too long.

XDP starter
Ted (South Rockwood, Michigan) | October 23rd, 2025
Purchased a starter that cranks way faster than the NAPA brand, starter failed to contact. The company was given two options of returning it being that I have two of these trucks I purchased a second starter for my other truck put that starter on replacing the one that failed shipped it to him on a Wednesday they received it Friday. I had another one coming to me the next day free charge. Things are bound to go wrong in life really appreciate their quick response and their support adding the warranty, I purchased all the products from them as well. Very happy with everything they offer.

Cranks a lot faster
07 Duramax (Michigan) | May 9th, 2024
To be fair my old starter was very weak, but this is definitely a whole different sound than a factory duramax. Sounds like a 6.7 Powerstroke when it cranks now. So far very pleased, and for only a little more money than a parts store starter you get one that’s American made.

Truck starts faster
Zephan (WA) | March 29th, 2024
worth spending the extra money and getting a better starter. Between this and 1/0 cable I have running to it, the truck starts fast even when its cold. Barley have to bump the key when its warm out.

Great Upgrade Over Factory Unit
Alex (Lincoln, NE) | March 17th, 2024
After the top bolt ear on the OEM starter broke off and bottom bolt was no where to be found figured Id pick this unit up. I've only had this starter installed for a few days but very happy with it thus far, seems to be holding up very well. I Immediately noticed a difference in start up time and effort. Install was a little tedious on an 03 but nothing you cant tackle in a few hours on a weekend yourself.
