TWO Bad Starters?? - Fixing the 92 Land Cruisers Clicking Start

Even after getting the old starter tested and new one swapped in, same issue... a few times. But here we are a week later with no issues after the first 5 failed starts on the new one.
All wires checked and ends cleaned. Battery checked and charged, yet still the new starter gave me some trouble.
Maybe the internet knows why...
Did I miss something obvious? Is it the ignition signal wire? Clearly a bad terminal somewhere?

Gears on your flywheel are worn

Thanks for the suggestion.
I sure hope not! 😮

@@ChasingRyann does it crank right up if you have a jump pack on your battery?
