Where to buy 180D starter motor

[nepa]

Ok, removing the starter is not a problem. Brought it to a shop that rebuilds starters, generators, etc. After 10 days I called the shop and am told the armiture is bad but they can not find a replacement. Any advice? Where can I buy a new starter? I have searched and the only starter I could find was in Germany and the shipping was almost as expensive as the motor itself. The tractor has a Mitsubishi K3C engine. Thanks.

The shop should have resources to locate what will work. My Mitsubishi's Bendix went bad. My local shop found a new starter with Bendix for only about $50 more than just the Bendix. The new starter was made in Mexico. Mitsubishi used pretty standard parts.
