Joy2all Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Hello Everyone ... We need to replace our 24 volt starter on our 1956 B63 Mack Truck...This starter has the solenoids in the truck cab under the seat...The starter is 24 volts but lights etc are 12 volt... Anyone have idea where we can get one to replace this starter... All help appreciated Joyce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlotpilot Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 (edited) lots of places to get 24v starters depends on where you are other option is to have what you now have rebuilt, first make sure the starter is the problem Edited August 17, 2018 by carlotpilot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 lots of starter generater shops will do it...lotta parts still available and yes it might be your parallel switch or sylanoid or just a bad wire...bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freightrain Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Ditto, how is the wiring? If it turns slow it might be the battery cables/wiring or the S/P switch. Find a local shop that can test your starter. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large...................... Charter member of the "MACK PACK" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbigrig Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 24 volt starters are all over the place here in Ontario (just a couple of doors down from you eh) 24v is quite common for city transit buses. Lots of places in Ontario that would ship out west worst case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
