K31977 starter motor
Bryanj:
To rebuild the starter clutch you need the bottom crankcase off and primary shaft out, all the 500/550 parts are the same.
the 500/550 are normaly very reliable on the starter clutch unless stood with grubby, sludgy oil for a very long time. If rebuild is necessary you need 3 off each roller, springs and spring caps
