Go over to LarryBs web site he's got full starter rebuild kits. Bearings, brushes, and contacts.

 

How good would this rebuild kit from Genos be?

I think that's the one I used, pretty sure it's Larry Bs. When I got my truck with 202k the starter was sticking. Rebuilt it, no issues in the last 25k miles.

I'm not having starter issues, but like these other guys are saying, might be worth the preventive maintenance ya know?!

I bought the kit with new brushes and contacts, however, my brushes looked great so I opted to not install the new brushes.  My contacts were garbage and needed to be replaced.  I couldn't bring myself to buying a new or rebuilt starter so I went with LarryB's.  A buddy of mine rebuilt his with Geno's kit and I believe you can find rebuild kits at Oriellys.  If you have 175K miles on it, your starter is due.  You may not be having problems now, but you will eventually and it won't happen anywhere convenient.
