Re: Mounting / Connecting The Fisher Price Motor
If you look carefully at the inside end of the flange coming out of the FP transmission, you will notice it isn't round, but octagon shaped. (It took me a year to notice this) You could cut an octagon (just under 1.5" across the flats, approx 3/4" thick) drill the center out, and attach a shaft. Hoseclamp and/or pins around the outside to hold it on. I would probably bore out the hole in the case also, and use that with a bushing to help support the shaft.
