Why not pull it out and check it over before your trip?. They are not something you want to be changing out in the middle of know where.

We just finished a 1uz conversion at work and we had the starter out and rebuilt it as part of the job. It is worth rebuilding them as it doesn't cost that much to do.

Do the pinion clutch on the end as well. Pretty cheap.

Check the number of teeth on the new pinion before you finish putting the motor back together.......
