OEX Starter Motor 12V 9 Tooth CW Denso Style DXS468

The OEX DXS468 is a new 12V starter motor in Denso style, with clockwise rotation and a 9 tooth pinion. It is specified at 1.4kW and uses a 2 hole starter mount with 106mm mount centres, so the physical mounting details need to be checked against the vehicle or equipment before ordering.

Key dimensions include a 55mm flange diameter, 190mm overall length, 29mm pinion diameter and 18mm pinion at rest. The unit weighs 3.6kg and is listed as a dry clutch application, which makes the mounting and application details important when comparing it to the original starter.

This starter motor is listed under OEX part number DXS468 and suits Denso units. The fitment data supplied includes Caterpillar forklift, Mitsubishi industrial forklifts, and Toyota applications such as 4 Runner, Granvia, Hilux, Hilux Surf and Land Cruiser Prado, but the exact vehicle match should still be confirmed carefully by part number and specification.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the part number DXS468, the 12V rating, clockwise rotation and the 9 tooth pinion against the starter you are replacing. The mounting pattern also matters here: this unit has a 2 hole mount with 106mm mount centres and M10 / 11 mount hole diameter, so it needs to physically match the original unit.

The listed dimensions are useful when checking space and alignment in the vehicle or machine. The starter has a 55mm flange diameter, 190mm overall length and a 29mm pinion diameter, with the pinion at rest measured at 18mm. If any of those figures differ from the original starter, pause and confirm before fitting.

Because the fitment data includes multiple Toyota passenger and commercial applications as well as Caterpillar forklift and Mitsubishi industrial forklift groups, the safest approach is to confirm the exact engine or machine application rather than relying on model name alone. Industrial and vehicle starters can look similar while still differing in mounting, rotation, pinion or nose dimensions.

The OEX warranty is listed as 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. If the starter is going into commercial, industrial or forklift service, it is worth checking that the application falls within the intended duty type and that the replacement unit matches the original installation closely.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number DXS468 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

OEX Starter Motor 12V 9Th CW Denso Style. Part number DXS468 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number DXS468, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment using the DXS468 part number, 12V specification, CW rotation, 9 tooth pinion, 2 hole mount and the supplied application details before purchase.
