Replacement Step Motor for X/Y

Does anyone know where I can find replacement stepper motors for the 42BYGHM809 Wantai motors?

I have been looking online and cannot seem to find these anywhere (except eBay and I do not shop on eBay at all). If there is an alternative that will work on the X/Y that is fine. My biggest issue is that I cannot find 48 mm motors (48 N-cm) and am wondering if other sizes will also work.

I did find these:

Will they work?

Not sure about Wantai motors, Prusa uses LDO motors. You can buy them in Spare Parts section for your particular printer, for example https://shop.prusa3d.com/en/59-spare-parts?p=2  

You have to be logged in with account under which you bought your Prusa printer.

LDO sells those too: https://ldomotors.en.alibaba.com/product/60822749590-805639512/LDO_MOTORS_MK3_MK2_5_Motor_Kits_Nema_17_Stepper_Motor.html

@oxygenca18, you don't state where in the world you are, so we can provide little guidance for good vendors. There are lots of vendors around the world who sell parts for 3D printers, stepper motors included.

I'll put in a plug for my local (i.e. I can physically visit their storefront) 3D printer vendor, Printed Solid. If you are talking about replacements for a Prusa printer (unclear because you are asking about a brand that isn't normally found on Prusa printers), Printed Solid does carry the full MK3 motor set direct from LDO with integrated lead screws on the Z motors, and integrated cableson all motors cut to the right length for the MK3 and labeled. The only thing missing on this set vs. the set purchased directly from Prusa is the laser engraved Prusa branding. (They do carry other stepper motors if you are interested...)
