Default Bent Motor Plate

While working on my truck I noticed that my motor plate was bent. Has any one run into this problem before? If so who makes the best replacement?

Thanks in advance

The stock moror plates do flex and bend alot, East end Mach. and DNA make a 1/8 replacement that works really well. Check in the vendor section.

I replaced mine after I noticed how bad the stock plate would bend when bound up.

Problem solved now with the DNA Plate

I gotta give DNA credit where credit is due...


I bought a DNA plate and received it Un-tapped for 3mm screws....


The NEXT day they emailed me about the plate...I Didnt contact them in any way....They offered to tap the plate free of charge...


I tapped the plate myself, but for someone that couldnt tap this themselves......TOP Notch Customer Service DNA !!!



Thanks again !!!

Well guys thanks for the information. Looks like a DNA motor plate is in my future.

Are the DNA plates still priced at $30? Look likes the East End plates are priced at $16, any one know if the DNA product is worth the extra $14?

If your not planning to run an outrunner motor, then no. The East End Mach. is the same thing, just anodized black or you can get plain aluminum.
