Forgive me guys but it seems that the admins/mods know what'* going on.

But I don't.

I can deduce that AJ is a member on here but I don't know his sn and why he swapped his motor? What he swap it with? etc.

Sorry for being naive but I may have missed the story, who knows.

All I know is that his engine was blown, and is swapping in a 'new' one.

AJ had a LIM failure, and shortly after repairing it, the engine spun a bearing, which was then replaced be a used motor, which once again spun a bearing.. now motor #3 isd mid-transplant
