Hi Nelly,
Happy new year.

One of the things which springs to mind from other types is that if you don't take care when fitting the starter then loads are placed on the shaft as it is left hanging whilst the clamp is placed around it to hold it in place.

Did the same person fit both starters?

Normally they shear on start because this is when the largest load is placed on the shaft.
