    G0704 Upper Drive Gear

    If anyone has a metal version of the upper drive gear that meshes with the drive motor I am in need. As the plastic one stripped all the teeth off.

    Thanks Dennis

    You might consider a belt drive conversion.

    Does it require a new motor, or do you use your old one.

    You can use the stock motor with a belt drive, but most people opt to swap it out for a treadmill motor. Keep in mind, if going by Hoss's plans, there are separate prints for using the stock motor vs. a treadmill motor. Also, a conversion won't be much help to you if you don't have access to another mill to make conversion parts.
