Default found some motors...can you name these?

hey folks..

I bid and won these Cobalt motors on ebay last nite and they look to be exactly like the old holms pullers.. one is the 400 and 3 are what i think would be the 454's or 500's not too sure as i have never had these just looked at them on Holms site and ALWAYS wanted one!!

oh that pic is pretty small but they say "Cobalt Motors" made by Cermark... are these the same cans and motors he used to built his "Pullers"
they are in prestine condition and I got them for $30.00 shipped...deal? no deal?

so can anyone tell me if these are them?


thanks a lot

this motors are the exact same dimensions as holmes puller motors, i'm not sure of the materials though. I can tell you that I have one of these motors and I have been using it for at least 2 years and never have problems with them yet even use it on our TTC's many times and these motors just keep asking for more. Good find, I paid $40.00 on mine for one. Did you get all of them for $30.00?

Hard to tell from the pic, but they probably came from the same factory. The bigger ones will have 4mm shaft. I had custom armatures made for mine. I still have some low turn arms here, as well as blank arms, brushes, and springs.

hey thanks for your reply.. can i possibly get some of the parts you have for these motors? will they bolt up to a standard axial trans mount in my rig?

as for the other question I paid 27.00 shipped for them... think I was pretty stoked haha

hey john, what do i do about a pinion gear for these? drill? and how do I tell the turns on these... ONE MORE question

whats the size ill want to use on my 11lb JeeP?? I see there is a smaller one as well is that one any good?

thanks so much

Tell them that they are ungrateful and that you never really loved them.
