motor options and opinions
i have a 2001 pds, lifted, 22" tires with an alltrax 500a controller, HD solenoid, 2ga cables. the motor is an older plum quick (made by AMD) and it has 6-8 bars on the commutator that are damaged. 5-6 of the bars are burned and 2-3 are broken.
can the bars be replaced by typical diy folks, or best done by a professional? would it be cost effective to repair this motor or purchase a new or used replacement? given this is an oxymoron, what would be the cheapest replacement? a stock size motor or something else? |

Re: motor options and opinions
If it was me I would get another motor, whether used or new is up to you. I have a feeling you can’t repair/ replace commutator bars on the armature, but I have a feeling it’s not worth the trouble to try

Re: motor options and opinions
Well if your motor now is a high speed motor then yeah I guess the cheapest replacement is a good used factory motor
