Starter is making some noise between the short time after the engine starts, and one releases the key. So it looks like I need to replace the starter "Bendix" very soon. But since I will need to take it apart to do that, thought it would also take the opportunity to replace the motor bushings, and do some cleaning. I've already looked over jobs 15-7100 and 15-7101 from the service manual.

Does anybody know where the starter motor bushings could be ordered from? I've not been able to source them locally (sold out everywhere).

Thanks in advance for any info.
