The bearings were bad in our waterway 1.5 hp hi flow pump. We bought new bearing but then found out the cooling fan was also broke. Can's find anyone that sells these fans. Can anyone assist?

How badly pitted was the motor shaft? The reason I ask is the fan is going to be a bit of a challenge. Bearings, a cooling fan and likely shaft pitting and other damage from overheating does not make it worthwhile to repair a motor in most situations...
If you are OK with the shaft and the motor winding isn't damaged from the heat then I'll need the motor brand, model number and serial number to ID and quote the part. Either add it here as a comment or send it to me thru www.arrowmotor.net using the contact feature.
