Those classic Leyland tractors are tough as nails, but even they need a good starter to fire up on cold mornings. If you’ve been dealing with slow cranking or clicking sounds when you turn the key, this Lucas LRS106 type starter brings your reliable workhorse back to life with proper British engineering that gets those dependable engines turning over like they did decades ago.
What You’re Getting

Built for Real Farm Work
This starter fits the whole family of Leyland workhorses – from the compact 255 that’s perfect for daily chores to the bigger 485 pulling heavy implements. Whether your 270 spends its days running a loader, that reliable 462 pulls your hay equipment season after season, or the old 255 serves as the backup tractor that never lets you down, they all deserve dependable starting power.
Made to Last
Lucas starters were original equipment on many British tractors, and this LRS106 type maintains those same high standards. The robust construction handles years of farm use, and the right-hand fitment ensures proper gear mesh with your flywheel – no grinding or premature wear from incorrect starter alignment.
Installation Notes
During installation, take time to clean all mounting surfaces and electrical connections thoroughly. These older tractors often have corroded connections that rob starting power, so don’t skip this step. If your old starter was making grinding noises, inspect the ring gear for damage before installing the new unit. Uses solenoid QTP-51222 if yours needs replacement too.
