The WAI 5744N replaces original-equipment starter motors from Remy (refs 96767 and RS41080), Briggs & Stratton (refs 399928, 495100, and 498148), and Unipoint (refs STR1002A, STR1006, and STR1006A) — eight OE cross-references in total.

A. Yes. Both Remy 96767 and Remy RS41080 are verified OE cross-references for the WAI 5744N. If you are sourcing a replacement for either of those Remy numbers, the 5744N is the corresponding WAI unit. You can also search our catalogue by any of the other six OE references to confirm the match.
A. Yes — all three Briggs & Stratton original-equipment numbers (399928, 495100, and 498148) are listed cross-references for the WAI 5744N. If your engine carries any of these numbers on the outgoing unit, the 5744N is the correct WAI replacement.
A. PMDD stands for Permanent Magnet Direct Drive. Rather than using a reduction gear between the motor and the pinion, the drive connects directly to the engine ring gear. This means fewer moving parts, a more compact form factor, and a straightforward installation that mirrors the original fitment — all confirmed specifications for this unit.
A. The 5744N operates at 12V, uses a PMDD design, rotates counter-clockwise (CCW), and carries a 16-tooth pinion gear. It is supplied brand new and is manufactured to the Briggs & Stratton original-equipment specification.
A. Yes. Every vehicle and OE cross-reference shown for this part is checked against manufacturer data and backed by our Fit Guarantee. If it is not right, our Fit Guarantee or hassle-free returns have you covered.
