The 2280HA has only 3 leads and you can see under the black wires the red wire for the other phase.

OMG!! I want!!

Seriously, maybe it is because they were my first love, but I still prefer the Lehners over any other motor I've tried. It's a shame Mike won't pick up the line again (since BK is no longer involved). That leaves FD, with whom I will not do business, or ordering directly from Lehner. With exchange rates, a 1950 I priced from Lehner ended up at almost $500. I like them, but not that much.

the 2280 HA could only be wired one way.. I have 2 10 AWG wires coming from each connection... 1 wire was getting way too hot(I mean HOT)... when they say Hi-Amp.. they really mean it...

ScarletBoa, LOL, those are 5.5mm bullets... I just have surgical tubing around it so no dirt/dust/water gets in when it makes contact....

You are correct.... I have one (2xRED), another (2xBLACK) and lastly (1xRED/1xBLACK).. that way I don't get the wires mixed up... I wish I had a different colour though.. I wish Castle would sell their wires in bulk.. And Lutach, I'm picking up the Rampage MT 4x4 in 5 hours :).... can't wait to get this thing going....

Maybe email them, they may give you better pricing..

I can't wait to see it. It should be awesome with all the quality components you're using.

I emailed them about the same thing a few months ago and they said I could buy it as long as it was 5+ ft of whatever color.
