Jaguar V-12 XKE, XJS, and XJ12 1972-1994 High Torque Gear Reduction Starter:

This starter replaces the Lucas number 26381, S4541, and S3113 starters among others. It fits all Jagar V-12 applications except 1971 and early 1972 XKEs which is also available below for the same price and replaces Lucas # 26327D and 26272D.

$197.95
This is our 1.2 HP nippondenso starter that has been expertly machined and modified to work in almost all Jaguar V-12 applications from 1972-1994. It may work beyond 1994.  This is a great starter at a fantastic price. Stronger and lighter than the original starter with no permanent modification needed to you vehicle. Bolt it on and go! Say goodbye to labored starting in the winter or "hot-start" problems. We sell a bunch of these and they are always in stock!

Electrical Hook-up:
This starter has one large bolted terminal for the positive battery cable from your vehicle.  There is also a second small solenoid terminal (1/4" male spade connector) which connects to the wire from your vehicle's ignition switch. You have the option to bypass this starter's solenoid for simplicity and to retain the use of your car's original external solenoid. Click here for details. The starter is very simple to install and connect!

Installation tips:
This starter does not have threaded holes as the original. This usually helps in that it makes it easier to install. You will  "through-bolt" the starter using the original bolts and a set of lock washers and nuts (or nylon inserted locking nuts) that can be easily gotten at the hardware store for a few cents.

XKE V-12s have a starter bolt access point in the passenger side floor board. You will pass an extension through this hole to tighten or loosen the upper starter bolt.  This hole is under the carpet and covered by a rubber grommet. This tip will save you hours of aggravation and the starter swap will take less than 15 minutes with assistance from a second person.

 E-Type and MK Sedan

Jaguar 3.8

High Torque Gear Reduction Starter:

$193.95
This is our 1.2 HP nippondenso starter that has been expertly machined and modified to work in the Triumph TR3A through TR4A(from TS50001- TR4A), Jaguar 3.8 XKE and other 3.8L Jaguars.  The mounting plate may be easily rotated for best fit in each vehicle application.  This is a great starter at a fantastic price. Stronger and lighter than the original starter with no permanent modification needed to you vehicle. Bolt it on and go! We sell a bunch of these and they are always in stock!
