Hello Towertalkians,

This is a question for those of you who rebuild your own Hy-Gain rotators.

I am in the process of rebuilding a T2X.  It appears that the motor shaft has 
excessive vertical play, which is allowing the bottom of brass pinion on the 
motor to catch on the third spur gear.  I assume the top of motor shaft is 
supposed to have some type of retaining ring to keep the shaft from dropping 
down inside the motor.  Can anyone tell me what type of retaining ring this is? 
 It is not listed or shown on the parts diagram, since it is a sub-part of the 
motor assembly.  Hopefully I can find a suitable substitute at the local 
hardware store.  The motor assembly is $70.00!

Thanks in advance.

73 de Bill
