So the armature for the ball lift motor on my 58 all star bowler is shot. The gear is worn to the point it usually wont lift the ball. Its a 24 rpm motor from what i can tell. Im wondering if there are replacement armatures avail or maybe a new motor retrofit.

So what was really worn on this motor were the bearings. I couldnt find a quick replacement local, so i just fabricated some thrust washers out of nylon to tighten things up a bit. Works like a champ.
