A simple way of identifing the different types of starter drives is the over-running clutch type drive uses a solenoid with a small shift lever to shift the drive into the ring gear. The Bendix drive uses the rotational force from the armature to screw the drive into the flywheel ring gear. The big advantage of the solenoid shifted drive is the gear is not spinning when it is shifted into the ring gear. Where as the Bindex drive is spinning as the gear is being engaged. With that much said there are two different types of Bendix drives. The old true Bendix uses a large coil spring that absorbs the shock and the newer style that most refer to as a clutch uses a compression spring that is encased in a case that looks like the overrunning clutch assembly. These drives are not cheap but they still are a lot cheaper than replacing the whole starter. My 2 cents MN Charlie
