If the one I get from the yard is in need of a rebuild (I am going to have it tested at AZ) I'm going to save my $$ and have a local place do it. I agree on the over the counter stuff. The ones you get from fastlane are ok though because they are rebuilt in Germany (at least most seem to be)....so the quality of rebuild is good. And if you can get your hands on "USA Industries" rebuilt products over the counter those are good too, rebuilt right here in the USA, the starter in my dad's SD is from them and its awesome, not to mention price competitive, only $120 over the counter from Murray's Auto Parts.
