TP 5680 motor mount for 6 bolt pattern, 5 inch rails

[voepel]

Does anyone know of other 6 bolt pattern motor mount brackets besides the one OSE sells? I am switching out motors from a leopard 56110 4 bolt pattern to TP 5680 6 bolt pattern motor mount.

Thanks, Steve

It's the only one I found. You could try Bonzi Sports and see what they use.

Had no luck with calling TP or Bonzi. It looks like everything made now outside of the quick change OSE Steve has is carbon fiber glue mounting. I was trying to find the motor end bracket only. Not the old school I have. Steve mentioned I may be able to have two of the 4 bolt pattern match up to the 6 bolt pattern, so that may suffice, but not ideal. IMG_5012.jpg IMG_5013.jpg

See pictures.

Thanks for looking.

Redrill the mount for six bolts?

Ok, I'll bite, what's wrong with the 6bolt TFL mount that OSE sells?

cut the center section of the rail mount out, make a new 6 bolt center portion. drill and tap new center section and bolt it to the old mount tabs. amazon has 1/8 and 1/4 inch aluminum sheeting on black friday sale.

Steve from OSE said that you could use a 6 bolt pattern on a 4 bolt mount. I tried thar and I was able to use two of the 4 holes diagonally which coupled with the back motor mount support seems to suffice. After all the searching I did, I have no idea who made the originally 4 bolt mount for the 5 inch rails, but it seems times have changed for what is offered now.

Thanks for the help, Steve
