I was wondering if anyone could let me know how in the world do you install the starter back on the 9N. Is there a trick? Thanks in advance for your input.

If you have rebuilt the starter and have put a new and improved bendix on, it won't fit in the original starter hole in the housing. No big deal. Just grind out the housing a little at approximately the 1:00 to 2:00 o'clock position as you look at the starter hole. the new bendix also has to be in disengaged postion as mentioned.

Installing the starter is pretty simple with the two long bolts and one cable so I assume you may be having trouble getting the shaft/Bendix back into the hole past the flywheel. I think this is easier if the Bendix is in the disengaged position. See Dell's very good explanation below. My local shop also uses the wire brush "trick" to set the Bendix to the disengaged position. Be careful if you are installing a new starter with new bolts, my new bolts were longer than the old ones which caused one to screw in deeper and actually wedged against the flywheel preventing it from turning! Hope this helps.

"....the slot in the starter Bendix has a name I don't remember right now. Its really a RPM differential scheme so that when the engine starts, the flywheel velocity is faster than the starter gear velocity, it causes the Bendix worm gear to wind itself back up on itself thus disengaging and withdrawing the starter gear from flywheel ring gear. Now then, there are some N-Board members that claim you can "simulate" a engine start by using a wire brush on a grinder to speed up the ring and drive the starter gear back up the shaft instead of mucking around 2 hours ... to get to "nub" to rewind the starter drive. But now you know..... ...Dell"

How does the starter actually bolt to the tractor. Just looking at the part and where it bolts on, I cant figure out how it bolts on.
