Unfortunately we cannot repair motors, we can only replace them. Since it is a discontinued product, we do not have them in stock so we cannot replace them. The bearings are dual shielded and sealed so they do not require any maintenance; they are called lifetime bearings. Replacing the bearings would require a bearing puller to remove the old bearing and a bearing press to get the new bearing seated. These are some of the best long life bearings available for these motors; ceramic bearings can't handle the sideload that's put on them and will fail easily.
