AHH forgot about the bushings, yes check those too. Also be sure to use a reputable shop and ask what all they service. The comm, brushes, beagings?

My dad works at a stone quarry and is the maintenance supervisor, head electrician. They had a 500hp rebuilt for their stone crusher and when they got it back and installed it, it would just sit there, draw about 400amps and blow the overload. They'd unhook the load and it would run fine. Dad called the shop, asked how far they turned the comm, turns out it was a quite a bit below spec. That shows when the comm is cut too small, you have not torque. This motor was out of the 40s, so a new armature wasnt availble. Turns out they had a brand new armature in a disply showing off the quarry. Slapped it in there and she's purring like a kitten now. =)
