Re: Question about Fisher Price Motor Connectivity:
Is is certainly possible to attach a Globe gearbox to the Fisher Price motor. You will need to replace the pinion gear on the FP motor shaft with the one on the Globe motor, then make a bracket to hold the two together. This will require some precision machining.
The FP motor has much more power than the globe, to I wouldn't count on the Globe gearbox lasting a long time. Make sure you strip it down and re-lubricate it with with quality grease. Most Globe gearboxes I have seen are pretty dry.
