Last we checked there are no motors left at EPRAD. We have ALOT of Double Muts in this area and generally have to get them rebuilt at an autorized GE service center. I believe that the motors used in the MUT and Double MUT are the same.

IF he hasn't sold out of them...  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 06-06-2007 10:31 PM                     the older swords used a right angle gear motor the later ones were in line  |  IP: Logged
