XDP Wrinkle Black Gear Reduction Starter 82-00 6.2L / 6.5L GM Diesel
Description
Is your Chevy diesel in need of a replacement starter? Why not bolt-on a big upgrade for easier starts, even on the coldest of mornings with this heavy duty, gear reduction starter?
You can rely on the XDP Wrinkle Black Gear Reduction Starter to get your GM Diesel running in the most extreme environments. XDP's Gear Reduction Starters are faster, stronger, and more durable than your factory starter. This gives you the ability to turn over even the most aggressive diesel engines.
XDP's Gear Reduction Starters feature a smaller motor that is faster, more efficient, and draws less amperage. The Gear Reduction Design produces more torque than a factory unit, at about a third of the size. This not only reduces weight, but also makes a more compact design for easier installation. Each starter comes pre-tested, ready for installation and features a durable "Wrinkle Black" finish for corrosion resistance and aesthetics.

How it works
After checkout, we route your vehicle info and part SKU to verified installation shops near you. Local installers review the job and submit competitive bids; you pick the shop you want based on price, reviews, and availability. Your name and email stay private until you select an installer.
Pricing
You pay for the bid from your preferred shop. The full amount is shown before you confirm — installers cannot add charges without your written consent. Payments are processed securely by Stripe.
Your privacy
During bidding, shops see only your service ZIP code, vehicle year/make/model, and the part SKU — not your name, email, or address. Only the shop you select receives your contact details after payment. We never sell your personal information.

Nowadays, its hard to find a manufacturer of OE level products that produces at least a little bit of everything.

By maintaining and constantly growing their catalog of XDP Mfg. branded parts, you're able to stick with a single manufacturer in many instances, adding simplicity and peace of mind that components will work in tandem with one another.
From Exhaust Bolts to Radiators, Xtreme Diesel Power Has Your Needs Covered.Due to their extensive knowledge in light duty diesel parts, XDP Manufacturing is able to determine shortcomings in factory parts and create a solution to ensure your diesel truck is as reliable as it can be. When it comes time to replace a damaged or worn part on your diesel truck, wouldn't you rather replace it with something that's proven to last, and hopefully last longer than the piece you're replacing? Of course you would! This is where you can trust in XDP's line of electronics and engine parts to keep your truck on the road for the long haul.

Q&A
- Will this work with a manual trans. Needs to push out further on a manual flywheel
- Yes, that will work on the manual platforms as well.
- Does the starter motor have sleeved bearings or roller bearings in the motor. Do i need shims for installation?
- Unfortunately the manufacturer does not specify on the bearing type in this starter. You should not need any shims for installation.
- Going to try one, do i need the bracked for my 1884 k10. Does it need a front bracket and do i need new bolts?
- You should not need any additional components, as long as it is going in a 82-00 6.2L / 6.5L GM Diesel.
- I’m needing a 24volt
- We do not carry a 24 volt starter.
