    It's not the same motor in the eBay link anymore. They changed it. I ordered one and it was a 12v motor that barely moves. I did find a different one which is just as fast and smooth but it costs a few bucks more. Still awesome though, thanks for pointing in the right direction and the other great tips for our micros.

    Hi 2fm, any ideas on how to get the pinion off. Already destroyed one trying to get it off.😭Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks

    • @2fmrc
      @2fmrc  2 роки тому +1

      They are a major pain. I pried my flat screw driver between the motor and pinion enough to get the pinion started moving and away from the base of the motor enough that I could get my pinion puller on it. It was tough though. I boogered the back side of the teeth a bit but they don’t catch the spur at the very edge on the back side anyway so it was fine. I luckily snatched up a couple of their gear sets that included the pinion before they removed them from the site. Hopefully we will get some new options soon!
