As long as it's working, no need to replace.

Fortunately, the procedure is very simple on these by pressing the gear off, the armature is free.

The other option is to replace the commutator only if the three pole windings are good.

I had the motor doctor basically rebuild 2 armatures for 60 trolleys. Reasonable price, fast service, and excellent job and after sales support. www.themotordoctor.com

It is thin but I believe it will work. The armature is good I don't know if you can replace commuter only
