Which spacers go where on 2650? - 07.16.2009, 11:54 AM

I opened up the motor to clean the bearings and I forgot which spacers go where on the rotor. From the wear marks, it seems like the short spacer goes toword the ouptput shaft end, but it is hard to tell. I don't know if it is just me if the shaft sticks out longer than normal as it measures roughly 21mm from the mounting face. Also, where can I find replacement bearings? One of them seems a little grindy.

If i remember correctly, the front has the short spacer, the rear has the long spacer.
Bearings used are "Oversized ABEC-1 front and rear" i cant seem to find them online.

The problem is the dirt tracks that I run on. Dirt seems to very easily find its way into the front bearing.
