Do we have any experts here on starters? Starter rebuilders...etc?
I got a recomendation from my local rebuilder today (they rebuild starters and alternators, including forklift and industrial ones), to add a heavy duty relay between the starter ignition switch and the solenoid wire connection, use the ignition switch to power the relay, the relay to power the starter solenoid, and he also suggested I use 10 ga. wire for the battery to relay and relay to starter solenoid.
This question is related to an older thread of mine, but is new topic! For the history, back ground see:

But this, I think is related to the use of small ga. wires and small capacity ignition switches to power the starter solenoids directly on all jeeps?
I guess I need to go check my 85 jeep, and my 87 & 89, and the wiring diagrams to see if I am missing a relay on the 85, that is there on the 87 and 89?
