The motors were just fine.

The motor mounts were crap...we had so much torque going through our drive that we would actually end up spinning the drill motors in their mounts until the brushes shattered and were spit out. Eventually we made an aluminum cross-support to hold the motor in place and we haven't had any problems since.
