The important checks here are 12V system voltage, clockwise rotation, 12 tooth pinion, 3 hole mount type and the 126mm mount centres A, B and C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe starter’s 5.5kW rating, 92mm flange diameter and 347mm overall length are all practical fitment checkpoints. If any of those dimensions differ from the existing starter motor, it is best not to rely on appearance alone, as starter housings can look similar while mounting and pinion positions vary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit is listed for wet or dry clutch use, so clutch type is not the main deciding factor; the critical items remain the vehicle application, rotation, tooth count, mounting pattern and pinion dimensions. The listed weight of 13.5kg may also help when comparing like-for-like replacements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are replacing a starter in a Mack Superliner or Mack Titan application, check the exact model year and the current starter configuration before purchase. The fitment information provided names Mack Superliner and Mack Titan applications, but the safest purchase decision still comes from matching the part number and dimensions on the existing unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number MKA1978 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type STARTER MOTOR, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty 2 Years 400,000km, Mount Centres A 126mm, Mount Centres C 126mm, Number of Teeth 12, Pinion at Rest 48mm, Power Rating 5.5kW, Suits Unit Make Mitsubishi, Item Type Starter Motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional published details for cross-checking include Starter Mount Type 3 Hole, Weight 13.5kg, Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL, Part No. MKA1978, Brand MITSUBISHI, Description Mitsubishi Starter Motor 12V 12Th CW, Flange Diameter 92mm, Mount Centres B 126mm, Mount Hole Diameter 13.5, Overall Length 347mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMitsubishi Starter Motor 12V 12Th CW. Part number MKA1978 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor part number MKA1978, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully.
