Hi, I have stripped down one of the motors on top of a leg and found a stripped gear. Has anyone got an old broken motor I could take one out of please as happijac,s standard answer seems to be. Buy a new motor. The rest of it seems fine.
Thanks

Hi, I think if you Google "gears and bearings" find a local supplier go visit them they can best advise, I can't imagine Hapijac had a special 'gear' designed, most likely an off the shelf item

Hi, it's the first gear that takes the drive from the motor. It is a reduction gear with a second smaller cog piggybacking on top of it so pretty specialist. I can get the gear built back up, recut and then hardened again but it would be half the cost of a new motor and not guaranteed to last. If I can find a secondhand one I think this maybe the best option.
