Generic wheel motors

   / Generic wheel motors #31  
Does anyone have experience using generic versions of the white ce400 wheel motors used on the smaller PTs? Anyone ever mix name brand wheel motors with generic versions on the same machine and if so, did it cause any problems?

I ask because I have had zero luck with rebuilds over the years. Try to keep a spare on the shelf. The price I am finding for White branded wheel motors has doubled in the past few years (now ~ $900 + each). White has been bought then sold by Sauer Danfoss recently. Current lead times from White are measured in months/years. There is a company in FL selling a knockoff. Appears to be china made. Single wheel motor for $ 530 each. Buy 5 or more $ 390 each.

Thanks in advance
Do you have a link or contact info for the knockoffs? I've resealed/rebuilt all of my motors at least once, nd had to replace the axle shaft on one last year because of excessive wear where the needle bearings run on it. I think I got the last shaft that was still at the old price, and the new price is heartstopping. I don't remember the number, but it was a large percentage of the cost of a whole motor.
