Default Where can I buy just the bendix/solenoid for my '95 LT1 starter

My solenoid works sometimes, sometimes it just clicks, sometimes it will click and spin the starter a little and then let loose. I assume the contacts of the solenoid are getting some burned spots. Does this sound about right to you?

I checked with AutoZone, O'Reilleys and GM and none offer just the solenoid. I can get the whole starter for about $160, but I think it's just the solenoid. Anyone know where I can find one?

Many thanks,
Bry

Never mind, someone posted same problem just below mine. Looks like toyota contacts. Strange, toyota stuff normally lasts forever....

Have you tried to look up a local rebuild shop.

No, just recently moved to this hell hole. My experience so far is most shops are grossly inept. I like the idea of going to the Toyota dealership, best stuff is original stuff...

By the way, just for reference, the car has 74k on it.
