Well...i'm seriously frustrated now....the new motor that was sent has a different motor shaft key than the original motor.? The new motor's key is like a ramp and the old motor's key is flat.? So now i can't fit the belt pully onto the new motor.? Additionaly, when i got the new motor off the foam padding it was sitting on in the shipping box, i realized that mounting bracklets are both bent.? so even if I could have put the pully on the motor, there was no way that I would have been able to install and allign it.? Now i will have to rerent the pallet jack and trailer to bring it home whenever Felder addresses this.? I've attached some pictures below.? In the picture of the new motor, the old motor is on the top and the new motor is on the bottom.? You can clearly see that the old motor's brackets are nice and flat and the new motor's brackets are not.? I'm assuming that they are not supposed to be like that and bent into shape during bolting.? All i want to do is relax in my workshop and make some damn furniture.....

PS...i did confirm the ground short on the original motor after I removed the wiring harness.
