Ford 3000 starter trouble

Have a 69 Ford 3000 3-cyl gas tractor that keeps eating the starter drive. I replaced the starter motor a couple years ago shortly after buying the tractor. About 6 months back, starter trouble resurfaced. The starter motor spins, the solenoid appears to pull in, but he engine doesn"t turn over. Replaced the drive and worked great - for about two months. Had a mechanic look at it and he was stumped. He has worked on the tractor before (put in a new clutch). He put in a new drive and I worked fine. One month later, the drive is out again.

Any ideas?
 
when it 'stops working' and you pull it... is the drve gear damaged?

have you instected the ring gear?
