I make my own parts or have them made.

I ordered top of the line bearings from McMaster Carr for the reel shaft and lubricated the interior with airplane landing gear grease.

I replaced the axle and added air up tires. I enlarged the loading wheel to 8”.

I milled the front torque tube bearing out of bronze and keep it greased with wheel bearing grease.

If you keep the bearings nice and tight nothing wears out.

It has an AO smith motor that I can get repaired or replaced at a local motor shop.

I need to get a 1/2hp motor for my LT90 Marco

I think I’ve given you the number before of the motor and with the number a motor shop should be able to cross reference it to a new motor.

If you want it. It’s in my garage. Just let me know.

Rebuilding the old Marco was taken on as a joke but then I got into it and I love the machine. It’s stronger than me, bad boy will get away from ya if you ain’t careful.

Run the switch the wrong way and it’ll wrap you up like an anaconda

Yes please let me get those numbers again when u have the time

They are the only machine I know of that uses a right hand wound cable
