Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a direct replacement for my John Deere Gator TS starter or Gator CX starter motor?
Yes, this starter is engineered to directly replace the factory starters on John Deere Gator TS (2010-2014) and Gator CX (2010-2015) 4x2 utility vehicles. Confirm your original part number and 9-tooth/CCW rotation before ordering.
How do I confirm this matches my Kawasaki FE290D starter or John Deere 1200A bunker rake starter?
Compare the tooth count (9 teeth) and rotation (CCW) with the original starter on your Kawasaki FE290D engine or 1200A Bunker Rake. Then, cross-reference its stamped OEM number with Kawasaki 21163-2089, John Deere MIA12216, or AW26844 listed in our cross-reference section.
Is there a core deposit requirement?
No. This listing is for a 100% brand-new starter, so the original unit does not need to be returned.
Are installation bolts included?
The source listing describes the starter assembly only and does not confirm mounting hardware. Retain the correct original hardware unless your package contents state otherwise.
What should I check before installation?
Disconnect battery power, label the wires, compare both starters, inspect the ring gear and mounting surfaces, and follow the applicable equipment service manual for installation procedures and torque values.

Huge Huge amozon savings.

worked great went from a john deere gatorthat would not start to back up and running
the local dealer wanted $400new/ 300rebuit no labor included. Labor at this dealer is well over a $100 dollars an hour estimate 3 to 4 hours. This project with this starter cost in total around $100
new starter + labor. That's Incredible $700 + in savings.. Also the Durautos starter matches
the original starter link a mirror image to every detail. Great Find

Good quality starter that fits like OEM

I just installed this starter on my 2012 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO and it fit perfectly. The mounting holes lined up with the OEM unit, and the electrical connections were an exact match, so the swap was quick and straightforward. Once installed, it cranked the engine strong and smooth with no hesitation, and it has that solid, quality sound you expect from a well?built starter. It's great to have my Sportsman firing up the way it should again.
The build quality looks really good, and it feels like a well?made replacement part rather than a cheap knockoff. For anyone dealing with a weak or failing starter on a 2012 Sportsman 500 HO this is an easy, cost?effective fix. It works well, fits like it should, and is a good value.

Good starter, all new. Not a refurbished.

The customer service is unusually great. Really fast communication. We got the starter in 2 days. After a month, we started having an issue with the starter having to try a couple times before it would engage. Durautos customer service asked for a video of the issue and immediately sent a replacement.

Fit like a glove in my John Deere 620i

Worked perfectly in my John Deere 620I gator, trouble is where it's located. You have to use a clutch puller to get to the starter, but the starter performed amazing.
