Blown Solenoid on a Gehl 4835 SXT

[DerSpiegel]

The Contacts whore through on the solenoid located on the starter itself. I checked around on the skid steer parts suppliers and was getting prices of 500+ for a full starter and 200$ on the sub part of the solenoid on the starter. WAY to much. I ended up tracking down the manufacture "ZM" and the their US distributor and found the places that most recently ordered this specific part. http://www.wagneralt.com/default.asp For 35$ www.jnelectric.com for 25$ Would of been nice to just replace the contacts but this solenoid wasn't really made for that. Given the 1,000% mark up I thought it would be nice to share in case of other starter problems.
