Snow Way Salt Spreader motor Dead

The motor on my snow way salt spreader is done. Need to replace it. Anyone have any recommendations on cheap electric motors? Got quoted 850 for a new one from a sno way dealer

Will a fisher spreader motor fit this sander?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Get the specs off the motor then search online. I bought my replacemt Snoway motor that way. It was 350 bucks but I bought one as a spare a couple of years ago and I couldnt tell exactly what the web site was. You can do better than the dealer.

I think he needs a motor for a Vbox. Did you get one for a tailgate salter?

F snowway and their ridiculous prices. Go to a local electric motor rebuilder and they will be able to match you up with one. I just bought a snoway spreader this week, and was doing some research a conveyor chain for the 6ft electric is $800???!!!!. There is a guy five min from me that sells a direct replacement 1/2hp motor for $150. Or you can go to snowjob and pay $850....

Might be able to be fixed.I bring mine to my local alternator/starter shop.Just had my 1/2 hp motor overhauled for 180$ Common problem is when they cool down they suck in moisture which leads to corrosion.Not much in there,couple bearings,brushes,armature rarely goes.

I will sell you my brand new spare for $450 bucks. Never was mounted or used in any way. This is the half horse snoway vbox motor. That price is shipped.

That's about the right price for an aftermarket motor and a good price for an OEM
