C-shaped retaining rings

[KevinOBrien]

Hi all.
I'm having problems with the retaining rings at the bottom of the motors. To-date two have come off and one was rattling around loose inside the housing. The other managed to get itself between the motor coils and stuck to the magnets. I can replace the rings even if it is a fiddly job. Should i take it back to the shop and get the motors replaced or just get new c-rings. Has anyone else had similar problems?
Cheers, Kevin.

They should actually be E-Clips. The thrust washers need to be upgraded as well.

Ok! Thanks for that. Now at least i know what to look for on ebay. Anyone have any idea as to the size they should be? 2 mm?

You can just search for Phantom motor upgrade parts.

I picked one up at a NAPA store or a auto parts store.
