Well, I'm about to have mine changed. And they're estimating it at $450. Ugh.

Howdy Motorheads, I just bought a remanufactured starter by Ultima for my '99 Taco V6 at O'Reilly Auto Parts. It was remanufactured in Mexico. It will be $100 plus some tax after I return the core. My local mechanic uses the same one so I suspect it is AOK.

I just now got the old one out. A difficult and sometimes frustrating job. Removal took me 4 days working on and off due to summer heat. I had to split the old starter in two to get it out. There is very little working room on the V6 4WD model. I posted removal procedure here on WikiAnswers on a separate question.

If the $450 includes a Toyota remanufactured starter I just might go for it. Toyota's remanufactured starter was $220 at the dealer. I suspect their remanufacturing procedures are under greater quality controls than most.
