* Engine size: The starter for a small 6-cylinder engine will be different (and cheaper) than one for a big-block V8.
* New vs. Remanufactured vs. Used: A brand-new starter from a parts store will be the most expensive. A remanufactured starter is usually a good balance of price and reliability. A used starter is the cheapest but carries the most risk.
* Brand: Some brands are more expensive than others due to perceived quality and warranty.
* Where you buy it: Prices vary between auto parts stores (AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, NAPA, etc.), online retailers (Amazon, eBay), and dealerships.
Therefore, I cannot give you a single price. To find out the cost, I recommend:
1. Identify your engine size: This information should be on your vehicle's title or engine bay.
2. Check online retailers: Search on sites like Amazon, eBay, or RockAuto, specifying your year, make, model, and engine size.
3. Visit local auto parts stores: Call or visit several local auto parts stores and ask for a price quote for a starter for your specific truck. Be sure to specify whether you want new, remanufactured, or used.
Expect to pay anywhere from $50 to $200 or more, depending on the factors listed above. Be prepared to provide the engine size for accurate quoting.
