    Factory cross threaded gland nut

    LOLZ. Magisters are on the way. I will leave the replacements black so when peeps see them and ask why, I could tell them the story. :p

    Factory cross threaded gland nut

    I've gotten help on other forums and not trolled in rebuilding a Dewalt radial arm saw from the 50's that was built like a tank. Never got a response "what do you expect from a 68 yr old saw". It needed bearings and the members there gave me NAPA part numbers. It came apart and went back...

    Factory cross threaded gland nut

    You guys are getting away from the original post. I'm not complaining about the starter. They are expected to wear, just as the seals. You should be able to get a gland nut out without destroying it to replace the seals. Otherwise, make it an unserviceable part. If the tractor was still young...

    Factory cross threaded gland nut

    They are still responsible for QA on the final product. No excuses. They painted it orange ;P Someone there put their approval on the design and manufacture.

It was too hot out and had other stuff to move to gas out on getting the nut out, then spending 230 bucks for a new nut...

    Factory cross threaded gland nut

    Exactly. Weird, isn't it? The only thing i could conclude is what i included in my first post. The only other times you see a condition like that is when part of the bolt goes thru a boss and then into a nut or threaded part. In most cases both pieces are damaged, unless like here, one piece...

    Factory cross threaded gland nut

    THANKS for all the replies. Starter rebuild was easy once I followed guidance offered here with Denso part sources from many posts. Got the kit from an Amazon link. I put the wrench I used to whack it with to make it work back in the shed. That Magister site is a goldmine. Wish I had seen that...

    Factory cross threaded gland nut

    Heya gang, this is my first post after gleaning much helpful info, last of which was locating a rebuild kit for a denso starter solenoid as the kubota site/parts list lacks any detail in that regard. There are no part numbers - only viable fix thru kubota is an expensive starter replacement...
