the company that makes the CIMs is CCL Industrial Motor Ltd (http://www.cimmotor.com/default.htm). from what i've heard the motors we receive are a modified version (the stock motors have a pinion cut into the output shaft) of a motor that is used to raise and lower jacks on mobile homes. if you're trying to buy them, your best bet would be through the website posted above.
