[QUOTE="Justinh722, post: 8413807, member: 545828"] Had a problem with a shifted pole piece and shifted magnet on an HDC18 so I decided to use a spare FI BL motor that I had sitting around. The motor had a little surface rust on it from some moisture, is there something I could use to clean it off? Is it a big problem? I was also wondering about the Basket to motor bolts. Do I use loctite on those or just get them as tight as I can? I know I have to shim the coil. Can I use card stock? I heard of people using printer paper. I already bought some glue. I got some medium rubberized black CA glue and some loctite epoxy. Should I even bother with the epoxy since the spider assembly bolts down? Will the CA glue work just fine for that? I'm not sure If I got the right CA glue. it seems pretty thin to where it would bleed into the foam surround, but I cant say for sure. I also notice the sub had 2 dust caps. Do they all come factory like that? I appreciate the help.
