Wai Global 3268N

WAI Global 3268N is a permanent magnet gear reduction starter for selected Ford applications. The PMGR design is smaller than older 4" and 4-1/2" starters and can improve clearance near exhaust components.

Application / fitment

Confirmed fitment includes selected Ford Mustang 1992-2004 and selected Ford F-150, F-250, Bronco and Econoline applications from 1992-2002/2004. In some retrofits it is used in place of older Ford PMGR / Lester 3205 / 3268 starters and may require harness kit 79-2114.

• part type: starter motor
• position: bellhousing area
• selected applications: Ford 3.8 / 232 V6, Ford 5.0 / 302 V8, Ford 5.8 / 351 V8, depending on model and year
• dimensions: compact PMGR design used as a replacement for older 4" and 4-1/2" starters; fit is governed by mounting flange, 10-tooth pinion, rotation and terminal style

Compare the mounting flange with the removed starter, then check tooth count, rotation and flywheel ring gear condition. When converting from an older starter style, match the S-terminal wiring correctly.
