RE: Replacement for EV warrior [TANKS]

Concerning the KC motors at the Mending shed. How are
you folks aquireing those? Thet say on their web site
they wont sell the motor/GBs online? Another option
that i have been considering and something others
might find interesting is the various Pittman motors.
They seem to be a hot item on Ebay. The prices are
usually pretty good as well. Thanks in advance.
