Unit looks good but if the bushings in the end bells have the least wear ,as the starter engages and the bolts are tight the armature will move sideways and ground out on the stator as it engages..jamming it..It may not seem like much play but ANY play in these starters will ground them out and refuse to turn over..That is what it sounds like to me..if the end play is correct ,I would put a new pair of oillite bronze bushings in and make sure the shaft is clean and not worn.
