NAW Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 I realize I could search this out. But OFC is always good a fast replies. I have my 36 Lb Endura all torn apart right now, because it hasn't been working right for a while. Drive pin is broken. Retaining ring pooped off and stuck to one of the magnets in the motor and has worn down to almost nothing. A seal is shot, so the motor filled up with water. One brush is worn down to the wire. Online, I can find all the parts for about $35 US. But I've never bought parts from them before, and don't know if I should trust them. Anyone know a shop I can order them from? I thought there was one in Orillia that I can get Minkota parts..? Or if anyone knows a good online place that they trust and could recommend? I want to get it back together soon! I need my motor for duck hunting and fall fishing/camping. Any help is greatly appreciated.! Thanks, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfish Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Nick, just drop it off, let them fix it. That way you will have some warranty as far as work done is. Rockys is well known. DA BEST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

206 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 I have ordered parts for power drive motor with good luck from both https://northlandmarine.com/ and http://www.mikesreelrepair.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAW Posted August 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Thanks 206! I also found both those places. When I looked on the Minkota website, I actually got a quote from the website (USD Before shipping) and for the seals, drive pin, retaining ring and new brushes it only came to $5! So cheap! Prices where similar at the two placed you mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAW Posted August 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) So Tyler just hooked me up! All the parts where less than $20 after tax. And he removed the old seals, and bearing, and pressed knew ones on for me at no charge!! Great guy, and great service.
