Long shot--
Hoping some one has a set of motor pads for the original Woodpeckers PRL to fit a Bosch 1617. Shoot me a PM if you have a set collecting dust.
Thanks, g

Motor pads? Is that the same as motor brushes?

They're adapter pads to fit a router motor into a router lift. The Woodpeckers PRL is built to accommodate the Porter Cable 7518.The motor pads allow smaller diameter router motors to fit.

Which item number did you order, and did it end up working correctly for you and did you need more than one? I am buying a PRL v1 (original PRL) tomorrow and want to use my Bosch 1617EVS in it until I save up for the PC, wanted to make sure before I order something that it will indeed work. Thank you

nexgen23,
Ended up getting a NOS set of Woodpeckers pads on another forum. If you pm aram, a member of this forum I believe he has a set of WP pads for the Bosch

Ok thank you, I ordered the part number 165-569 "3-1/2" Id X 4.2" Od Adapter F/woodtek Router Lift" on the advice of Woodpeckers product manager, who said it would work. When it comes in I will try to remember to stop in and post one way or the other.
