Can anyone offer any suggested equipment vendors/etc. Money is an object here. Thank You.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-18-2004 10:48 PM                     The best bet would be to have your present motors rebuilt. We do this to at least to several motors a week in out shop. Typical cost is 1 hour labor plus parts. $$$Ok, a shamless plug here but we do ALOT of these and other platter motors completely in house....$$$ However if your motors are missing........ keep looking for used replacements or spend alot for new motors. Beware of the made in Mexico Motors that were used on AW3's for a short period of time. They can be rebuilt as well but are not as well made as the "Jethro" Bodine motors normally used.
