I'd like to disassemble the motor to check rotor and stators. Is it possibile?



After the impact, prop shaft was stuck and didn't spin (when I was waiting for the battery to be shipped, I spun it by hand to see how transmission worked) but diffs worked fine (if i was turning one wheel, the other one was turning on the opposite side). I dissassembled all the car to check diffs, gears, etc. but it was just when I detached the motor that prop shaft spun freely even by hand. I can't see any damage to the teeth of pinion, spur and diffs gears
Can you remove the motor mount from the chassis to make sure it's completely flat & not bent? If the pinion & spur gears aren't perfectly aligned or too close to each other they can't spin freely.
