My local used forklift motor reseller says most of his motors are single bearing motors, and adding a second bearing entails to much machining for him to do. Well, I have a machine shop at home, but no idea what is involved, as Iam new to the EV world. So any tips or suggestions for retrofitting a second bearing would be most welcome. (BTW, my initial thought is why not just put an external pillow block, or flange bearing, around the output shaft..but, no idea what is the proper method to retrofit.] Thanks! Glenn B.
