At 1/3 the price of a starter from John Deere you can't beat this, starts smooth no mashing of gears, I am extremely satisfied.

John Deere Riding Lawnmower owner here. Starter stopped working. It's a few years old, secondhand to me. Check the battery, voltage is great. Try and start it, it'll try for a sec, then stop. Try again and you get the "click" of it trying but not firing. I try bypassing the key and taking the positive to the post on the starter. Nothing.Ok, need a starter. Get the solenoid too, why not.Get the rear of the mower disassembled, get the old one off (looks suspicious to my untrained eye) and install the shiny, beautiful, untouched new one. Packaging was great, looks brand new, no complaints.Try starting it again. Nope, same thing. Ok, maybe the old one wasn't bad, but I'm not pulling out the new one. Check the battery again, voltage is great.Start tearing apart the front of the lawnmower. Get all that done, about to remove the battery to replace the solenoid....The negative terminal is loose.Yeah.So I tighten that. Try to start the lawnmower. WOW, turns right over! I'd say with a touch more gusto than it did before, sure, but yeah. The fault was not the starter. It was the idiot turning the key.If either the starter or solenoid go bad, I'm all set! Look at the bright side of things right!

The steel pinion gear on this starter destroyed the ring gear on the flywheel of my mower engine.Do not buy these unless you want a very expensive repair to your Briggs and Stratton motor. I’m looking at $200.00 for the new ring gear plus labor.

Needed to replace the broken starter on the Briggs Vanguard 18hp motor on a Pug F570. Bought this one as it was much cheaper than an OEM one. A year later and it's still working great! The install was difficult, but that's only due to where it is located on the motor, not a problem with the starter itself.

Exact fit for my Bad Boy zero turn with the 23 HP Briggs and Stratton Vanguard engine. It has the power needed to easily crank the engine. BD Electrical always provides me with good parts at an outstanding prices!

Bought this and used it on a Briggs Vanguard engine. I believe 21hp or maybe 22hp. They wanted some obscene amount of money to get a briggs branded one, but this was reasonable and working good. My ultimate issue wasn't my original starter going bad, so we will see how this one lasts.
