No, but I will say you have to watch your tools. On my way out one guy said someone stole his socket set and he was only gone for like a minute to look at something else.

...I also want to note, that those seats in that Ram Van were velvet and really comfy. Not only was it easier to retrieve the shaft than say a pickup, but I did so in luxurious comfort.

Nice, thanks. I did notice you can still buy Melling bronze gear versions but they are $200.

Thanks everyone, I got one. See pic. It was from a 5.2L Ram Van - that was great advice!!! Much easier to get to, took me literally 5 minutes to pull it. Pick-n-Pull charged me for this and a piece of trim for my wife's minivan.....$12. Note to cite above to IS-72 at A1 Racing, I called...

I'm gonna try the junkyard. I don't see any Ram Vans in our local inventory, but there are a few 5.9L trucks. Is that shaft the same in the 5.2L magnum?

Scratch that, my source fell through....anyone have one?

All good, got one, thanks all.

I see there's a gouger on Ebay asking $360/per.....ouch.

I'm looking for an intermediate shaft for a 360 magnum. Apparently they are hard to find. I believe the part number is Melling IS-72. I had my engine built, got it in, went to pump up the oil and noticed there was no intermediate shaft (well at least I didn't have to remove it...). I called...

Wow, let's see, shall I return the 99617 for a full refund and buy the 99612 (superior) model with the post....or, keep the 99617 and buy the pigtail for and additional $55 frickin dollars....hmmm..... For a minute there yesterday I was thinking of taking that socket off, drilling it out and...

Ah yes, the earlier model has the post...thanks. b

OK, so the 2000 Dakota R/T 360 mini starter has a socket connector for the solenoid wire. I can't find that pigtail anywhere. Does someone have a part number or a spare one?

Thank you!

I am swapping from SL6 to 360 magnum. I had used a mini starter on my slant six, Remy 16054, see pic below. Alas, it does not seem to fit my 360 magnum. I read on this forum someone used a "2000 Dakota 360 R/T" mini starter. Does someone have part number(s) for mini starters compatible with...
