I have a 2013 Kubota L3200DT tractor and the engine quit on me. I am looking for a used D1503 engine. Anyone got an idea where I can find one?

You will have a hard time finding a used D1503 for a tractor.
And just so you are aware, there are mutiple variations of that engine and the other versions will not work for your use.
Your better off having your engine rebuilt.

It is knocking pretty bad at operating rpms. Oil has a lot of metallic flakes in it. Based on what the diesel mechanics in my area are telling me it will be more expensive to rebuild than replace. Also, getting the parts can take forever and I use my tractor a lot.
I realize I didn't state the full classification of the motor, which is D1503-M-ET01, which is in the CKBXL02.0FCD family. I have just began my search and thought I would expand it by utilizing 'Orange Tractor Talks' as a platform to get the word out for what I am needing. From what I have been told by the diesel mechanics I have spoken with, (one of which actually had the tractor and ran diagnostics on it) the other one has actually rebuilt several, rebuilding is the more expensive and time consuming way to go. So, I am currently in the hunting mode.
Be advised post #6 with Ferdinand1 offering the needed engine and "looking to dispose at a discount price"... is his first post here and could easily be offering something he does not have.

I have a used v1503 te with only 138 hrs. It is off a military generator. The generator failed and the engine was sold separately. I purchased it for a project several years ago but declining health has changed my plans and direction. I would be interested in selling the engine.
It is turbocharged but I believe all your engine accessories will attach (stop solenoid, starter, intake manifold, exhaust manifold, injector pump, bell housing etc.) I don't know what else if anything would have to be done to make this a non aspirated engine if that was your interest.
I was given a YouTube video of the engine running if you are interested.
The unit hasn't been touched since I bought it and is stored inside.
