Finally started in on rebuilding the starter today. Brand new field coils were used along with NOS field coils screws. Its amazing just how hard these screws are to get out and then back in again. For removal I made up a tool to use in my impact air gun. Worked great for getting them out. However it wrecked the tops by chewing them up. For getting the field coil shoes back in just as tight I use the long nut and the two bolts as a kind of screw in wedge. I screw the screws in as tight as I can, then place the wedge in and turn it so it presses against both shoes. I can then normally get another 1-1/2 to 2 turns in the screw.
The copper leads were then pushed and pulled into shape and soldered into the copper stud.
