            Will these work on the NEU 1515 motors as well or just the NEU/Castle chinese versions?

              The end bell suits the Castle/ neu motor, so i would say it would only suit chinese version....

                All the Leopard 1515's I have seen have 4 screws holding on the end bells. So the neu/castle kits will not work. They have 3 screws holding on the end bells.

                    Funny thing, they sent me (5) of these instead of actual 1515 motors. I returned them because I didnt think anyone would buy them.

                      Dang, paid for 5 1515s and got 5 repair kits instead? Sounds like you literally got "the shaft".

                        If you can get enough profit margin out of stocking them it may be a good idea Steve. I now have a 4 of the Neu/Castle 1515 2200kv motors and I'm sure I'm not the only one. So there's a market. They have proven themselves on par with original Neu's in performance. Now the leopards I cant say of now but if they share the rotor and bearings who cares about the end plate. Those dont go bad unless someone is stripping out the motor mount screws. But it does boil down to how much you pay and then have them sit on the shelf until being ordered by us.

                          Why wouldnt you want to rebuild your motor for that price, Steve ? , well it looks like those 5 kits would have sold pretty quick !!

                            I had no idea that so many people needed to rebuild a motor already that has only been out for a year or so.
