76 DJ questions

[bigalpha]

Working on a 76 DJ with a buddy and the starter is kaput. Wondering what other vehicles may have used this starter so I can get one second hand for cheap.

Also, we will be replacing the freeze plugs. One of then had fallen out and has not been in the block for at least a year. Will we need to flush the block and do anything special?

What engine?

Can't find what starter it would be anyways, but it'd help. Options are 3.8L I6, 4.2L I6, or 5.0L V8.

If it'a a 258cid, my 78 CJ uses a Ford starter. If so, they can still be bought at any parts store

Don't know the engine size for sure but it was a USPS Postal Jeep so I'm going to assume it's a 3.8L.
